He always creeps me out.

He's a former wanna be movie producer (produced the Underground Comedy Movie) who joined Scientology, seemingly for the Hollywood connections. That blew up in his face when, after using those connections to get his movie made, the church objected to the movie and decided to ruin him. Shamwaw and Slap Chop are his road back to success.

As people mock him for his ridiculous salesman persona, I've seen people telling the above sob story an claiming he deserves sympathy for it. You know what? I have very little. When he joined the Scientologists, it was common knowledge what they are. He tried to work the system, he got caught. Got what he deserved. I have no problem continuing to mock his ridiculous new job that he's "forced" to do because of the situation he got himself into.

That stinks. But how would I know?

:D

Billy Mayes (Hi, I'm Billy Mayes - buy some Oxy Clean. ) was on the radio the other day and when asked about the Shamwow guy, he had nothing good to say about him. Basically calling him out on many levels - professionally and personally.

Wow; talk about the pot calling the kettle black...

While I have never bought something from any of them (I spend most of my time preventing Lani from doing so) I do love the art of their hucksterism. Best part of the county fair is to go to the commercial barns and just watch the good ones work.

The sham wow guy just reminds of a slimey guy who would hit on you in a bar and not go away.

...at least not until you bit his tongue.

Speak for yourself. Some of us thrive on that kind of attention.
