why silicon valley is different than the rest of the world

Seen above a urinal yesterday in a bar in Mountain View: ads for firewalls, security consulting, and used Cisco routers. This is not what you see in normal bars in the rest of the world.

    That’s hilarious. Here in Minneapolis, its nothing but hair plugs, teeth whitening and auto dealers. I mean, its nice to have something to read, but Mountain View’s ads sound so much better.

    I came across this because our firm sells Used Cisco routers, too. Maybe I’ll have to find the hook-up for how to place those ads. I’m sure we’ll be able to bid on them on Google soon enough! :)
