Stuart Smalley was a genius!

Holy shit. Stuart Smalley triggered a daily affirmation industry. Yes, you too can receive affirmations for only 99¢ each. Know what would make me happy? Send me 50¢, and I'll send you the same useless shit in a text message.

First one's free:
"I am a worthy human being"
... and, while you're at it, just tell your diabetes to go away (be positive) and watch how impressive the results are.

Send cash please.

Update (25-Feb-07)
Now, today's This I believe from Wayne Coyne of the Flaming Lips is a profoundly different message that we can all embrace with a little effort. Nothing magic, nothing stupid, just a pause and recognition of what's good in the world is worth trying. Thanks Wayne.

I guess that's what Flickrites are doing; savoring the moment.
