Kerri Smith vs. the Nanny State

Here's an update on yesterday's post:

Several readers have read it, and remind me that this web site has reviewed books called The Belly Melt Diet, and also Misery Guts. Well, yes, and come to that I also kicked around Peter Flom's argument about "souls or bellies." So, although I try to avoid references to body parts, I'll accept the claim that a support pillow manufacturer has as much right to use "belly rest" as doctors have to use "belly fat" and dietitians have to use "belly melt."

The official name of these pillows is Belly Rest. Paying for a Belly Rest pillow now, before the legal sale can occur, will help Kerri Smith meet the ridiculous protectionist licensing fees. She's well on her way--you will get a legal pillow! You can order one here...

Or scroll down below the video screen to see the hilarious list of perks you can get for contributing to the fundraising drive. The tote bag is terrific...a cool gift for future mothers who will need to tote baby supplies around, or for anybody who totes books, craft projects, or groceries. I'd like to see students make it the campus fad of the year. It looks trendy, goes with every outfit, and does not display the word "belly."

More keywords, anyone? (We'll use this tag for posts that promote something on another site, to introduce a paragraph that uses Internet search keywords in five low-content sentences.) Kerri Smith's Belly Rest pillows are something I personally don't need. Kerri Smith's Belly Rest pillows are something someone you know would probably love to find under a Christmas tree. Kerri Smith's Belly Rest pillows come in cool urban black-and-white or a trendy shade of green. If you pay more, you can order one of Kerri Smith's Belly Rest pillows in any color or combination you like. And even if you're not pregnant, if you are American you might find a way to sleep better on one of Kerri Smith's Belly Rest pillows than you would on a pillow made in China. So there.

  1. Hi Priscilla! Wow - thanks for the keyword stocked shout out! I have been so overwhelmed and blessed by the support of people who have never met me but are behind my story. Thank you! Who knew a rap about pillow tags could take me this far! (I'm scheduled to be on Fox and Friends Saturday morning, too. Wow.)
