I Smell Like Derek Jeter

Every now and then I buy cologne. It's not that I need it. I have some cologne bottles for years. It's just that I get bored with a fragrance.

One of my friends sells Avon. Avon was selling Derek Jeter cologne for a relatively inexpensive price. Derek Jeter is a talented shortstop for the New York Yankees. I bought it w/o smelling it. Now I'm trying to figure out my motivation.

Did I expect that if I made this purchase, I would smell like Derek Jeter? Did I feel that once wearing this cologne my life would become as successful as that of Derek Jeter? Maybe, I can identify w/the tax problem he's having w/the State of New York? I don't know.

I wonder what other celebrities should have cologne. I know Britney has a perfume. I'm not sure why anyone would buy it. Certainly, you wouldn't want to emulate her life.

I wonder if George Clooney has a cologne? Brad Pitt?

Maybe, it's just the B list celebrity that needs a cologne.

Perhaps, I should market my own cologne? I think I'll call it "Pestilence." Eau de Marty would be too pretentious. I can even write the copy: "For those moments when you need to smell like a Certified Public Acccountant, there's Pestilence."

It really doesn't matter how it smells. I just need a fancy bottle formed in a peculiar shape. People pay for the bottle.

So, who's ready for a splash of Pestilence?

Man, if I came home with a bottle of that Mrs. Fab would smash it over my head and then cut my throat with the broken shards...

Hmmm.... Eau de Big Papi for the discerning Red Sox fan?

W(ho)TF is Derek Jeter? I am guessing smelling like Derek Jeter's not a good thing? Doesn't Toiletpaperworld sell a cologne? Bet that would suit you much better.

I need to speak to Kenn about licensing the name toiletpaperworld.com for a line of cologne. I think the demand is there.
