has anyone noticed that croatia has gone crazy with giant poster advertising? when i was here in 91 they were no where . now there are toooo many. especially around split , zagreb and ive noticed between zadar and sibenik. its become ridiculos.i feel like getting those things on my eyes that horses wear so that they arent disturbed by things they see to the side.i cant go for a drive in may car without being bombarded by all sorts of billboards. its ruining the landscape and obviously companys have gone nuts to try to brainwash a newley formed capitalist economy in a transitional ex commy country .

Don't like it.
Sometimes find it very distasteful to see some half naked person selling something.
I just think it is tacky and I would prefer to see nature.

Again a sign of someone seeing a market opening and going for it...
probably making a lot of money at the same time!
Advertising is a big industry.
It's also a simple one to manage - All you need are sites to place adverts! I know people in London who lease walls on their houses to advertising companies ffor poster space!
Where there's money to be made...
(and if it creates jobs it can't be bad!)

I'd put advertising all over my truck if someone paid me enough to do it. Anyone have any contacts for that kind of thing?
A lot of building facade renovation gets paid for by the advertising that covers the scaffolding during the work. Good idea if you ask me. There's a lot of facades that need renovating in this country.

yeah.
also applies to the construction industry in croatia. try building a house yourself. its almost impossible to do it legally. try building an apartment building and then selling off the apartments. haha. impossible if you arent connected . so in the end..people are forced to buy apartments that are over priced. but people dont have an option. they can take out a credit to pay for their new "legal" apartment .

I entertained the primeminister the other night and a bunch of other HDZ ers he was laughing and enjoying himself, he even gave me money !! so I could give it to the child assistant in my show. Could be now that I am very connected. I'm going to see if he will give me a letter of recomendation so I can perform where ever I want in this country. Who knows, could work.

Probably I'm the only person with Leopard print hair he has ever seen, so there's a good chance he may.
