give your heart to someone worthy

Today, as i open my internet browser, an discrete but hard to avoid ad came up on my screen. A picture of a woman offering a large heart to the world, and the caption reads in chinese - "give your heart to someone worthy." It was a match.com advertising. And of course, all those lonlely ladies, looking for that tinkling warm feeling on a cold Christmas morning.... listening to Geroge Michael's "last Christmas"... "last Christmas I gave you my heart, the very next day, you gave it away... this year, I saving from tears, I going to give it someone specials...."

Did I point out it was a pictue of a lady??? and not a gent? subtle - but powerful message.

What a great ad - appealing to what promot people to spend money most - our faint and feeble emotions! (that is eay to manipulate).
