Go Further With The Griffin

Postby Blackhelm Confederacy » Thu Jul 09, 2009 1:28 pm

Image

A commercial appears on screen depicting a wasteland and a scared looking dog curled up nxt to some hubble. A woman's voice speaks.

"Just two years ago, this was the streets of the La Habana Cuba, after a devastating hurricane shattered the area"

The screen switches to images of a sprawling urban bustle, full of happy children eating ice cream and other nice things.

"Thanks to humanitarian efforts from the Griffincrest Corporation, this is the city today, a major commercial center for the entire region. Remember, that a percent of every dollar you spend on Griffincrest oil goes towards helping people, like little Miguel"

A dirty child appears on screen

"Or his dog, Pip"

A happy looking dog replaces the child. A few seconds later, a white screen with the blue symbol of Griffincrest and their slogan appears on screen.

"For only thirty dollars a barrel, this is one of the best things your government can do with their money. Buy Griffincrest, and go further with the Griffin."

927,000 more barrels of oil for $27,810,010 and an extra ten to ask you a question. How much do you actually donate per barrel?

We're buying this oil in order to fuel to change from fossil fuels to cleaner ways of obtaining energy. We already bought millions of [somewhat faulty] solar panels for 10 millionZimbabwedollars.

Eight percent of every dollar goes to humanitarian funds. We appreciate your inquiry, and hope others will do the same.

Your order is approved and the oil is being shipped immediately. We hope to see you around here again!

Thank You,
