Im so tempted to translate this as "We are an Italian web marketing company. Give us money to advertise your site".

But ive stayed in Italy , and i know how it should be translated.

"We are an Italian Web Marketing company (in name only). We will advertise your site on another website which has nothing to do with your website. Then , after your made you inital payment , we will sell this contract onto another , smaller company , who will in turn , sell it onto another smaller company , and eventually , if youre lucky , youll end up being advertised on a Ukranian porn site.

Regards

Massimo (Becuse Every Italian managerthat ive ever met is called Massimo).

My statement of "But they've pretty much always not been written in Spanish" still remains true then.

I think the Evening Times is disreputable enough thanks to the atrocious Animal Crackers.

J&SBSC is released on the 24th of August, I believe.

The one thing i hate most about movies is them holding back a good film for 8 or 9 months for the UK audience.

AND WHEN WILL WE SEE THE ANIMATED SERIES OF CLERKS FFS.

Sky had supposedly picked it up , and then we heard nothing more of it. And having seen the first episode , which was the funniest thing ever , im desperate to see the remainder.

Of course, it should be J&SBSB, not J&SBSC. And I only just realised that the 24th of August has already passed.

Time for bed, methinks.

The only proof I have that it was my illness and not actual cultural ignorance is that all their domains end in .it, which means my net-savvy levels were at critical levels at the time of the posting as well.
