How To Deal With Gaza After Hamas

And the award for bad taste in promotional efforts goes to...

Name brand manufacturers frequently and without solicitation send celebrities free stuff, hoping that if a famous person decides to wear, drive, etc their product, it'll serve as a promotion.

But it seems some people don't know where the boundaries of propriety and good taste end.

In Hollywood, you say!? Who'd have thunk it!?

Celebrity gossip site TMZ reports that a funeral company called The Golden Casket as decided, as a promotion, to send Zsa Zsa Gabor a free gold-plated casket worth $40,000.00

Another rule the Golden Casket people seem to have forgotten is that a gift is generally only appreciated if you can use it when you're alive.

Yipes!
