It’s been a few weeks since I’ve posted a new Fail Friday post mainly due to the fact I’ve been learning this new fatherhood thing and haven’t had much time. Anyways, this week I found a great product that I know is destined for failure. Although some people don’t admit it, everyone has gas, and now the great people at Solutions That Stick have found a solution.
All you have to do is stick a 3.25″ pad on your butt and your farts will turn into a gentle odorless breeze. And for just $11.95, why not? Hmmmmmm, how about the fact that this is just plain ridiculous. Why not just use a cork?

It’s been a few weeks since I’ve gotten much work done, and I have a great excuse. Most of my time has been spent with the cutest girl in the affiliate marketing world (my opinion, but it’s true). I’m a dad for the first time! My daughter, Brynna Mae Thompson, was born April 3 at 9:05 am. Since then, I’ve been busy averaging about 3 hours of sleep each night and have been to tired to work.
She was born weighing in at 6lbs 7oz and was 19.5 inches long. Being a first time parent I am amazed at how fast I can fall in love with her. She is absolutely perfect and I just adore my little girl. I’ve heard from a few people they wanted to see some pictures, so here are a few.

This weeks Fail Friday takes us to a product that would make any Hula dancer rethink her whole routine. There aren’t any products out there to allow you to sit on your butt, not really do anything, and have an amazing workout all all the same time. Well, that was until the invention of the Hawaii chair.
First of all, check out this infomercial and you will wonder how you ever worked without it. On second thought, how come the lady in the commercial isn’t typing while on the chair if it is so great for work? The Hawaii chair definitely deserves a “what were they thinking?” Watch the models using it, they are trying to smile but look incredibly uncomfortable.

This week has gotten me thinking about life and how I’m living it. Now I know you are probably thinking, oh great, another “fluff” post. That may be so, but I’ve had one of the hardest weeks of my life and since this is my blog I’m going to write whats on my mind.
Last week my uncle had heart problems and passed away at the age of 55. My grandpa was having a real hard time with it and was extremely stressed out. He was rushed to the hospital Saturday morning, where he was unconscious. Apparently he went without oxygen for around 23 minutes, which is definitely not a good thing. I had the chance to be with him at the hospital Saturday and Sunday with my family where we watched him take his last breath on Sunday night. Two losses to a family in 1 week is a tough thing to go through for a family.

I’m going to be adding a new segment on my blog every Friday of marketing campaigns and products that are complete failures. I think as marketers it’s good to learn from mistakes, and to be able to laugh at them. This weeks Fail Friday is the perfect gift for any golfer you know… The Uro Club.
I don’t think this product needs a whole lot of explanation other than “WTF?” as the video speaks for itself.
