The camera slowly zooms in on poor Julian sitting in the shade on his pool deck. The sun is much to intense for his old, and withered face these days. Julian, eyes cast down, is not smiling. As the camera finally frames his face full screen, the announcer's voice begins, "Yes, we have seen this face before, and we all know there are multitudes of disadvantaged audiophiles, just like Julian here. Waiting, worrying if they are the only one, hoping that a benevolent sponser will step up to the plate and show he cares. Julian, for all his years as a hifi enthusiast, has never been fully appreciated, and at no time has he ever known the comfort and security that comes from a caring sponsor's loving monthly cash contribution. Won't you please help? Look at that face. You can help make this sad and lonely audiophile's smile return. A simple monthly contribution is all it takes. Please, make the commitment. Join the many others that have heard Julian's story, and have gained the satisfaction that comes from lifting a poor, beaten down audiophile's spirits. Don't wait. Please, write that check right this moment. Your monthly contribution to the Save Julian Fund will create a warm glow in your heart knowing that you are helping a lonesome, aging audiophile to find that long lost smile before it's too late. Remember, only you can write that check. Please do it now,.....for Julian." Fade to black.

I did my best. Hope to see the checks rolling in soon.
