So I am in love with Shamwow infomercial. The way that Vince talks is phenomenal. If you need a refresher, here's the full thing.

I wanted to find out more about this "Vince" character. His full name is Vince Offer. Apparently, he wanted to make some movies, so he wrote and directed this movie called "The Undergroung Comedy Movie". Apparently he ragged on a lot of people in it. He was a Scientologist at the time, but they didn't like his movie, so they had him kicked out and branded a "criminal" against the Church of Scientology. Since the Church has the biggest names and crackheads in Hollywood, it basically shunned him and his movie into obscurity.
His life was destroyed, and he had no money left and an unfinished movie. To make some money, he started selling vegetable choppers at swap meets, and then after a couple years of saving up, paid for a commercial of his movie, which we all sure do remember. It had random people in it, like Michael Clarke Duncan. Here's a random clip: www.youtube.com/watch?v=Vvl0BNCPbkY
Anyway, basically what I'm trying to say that, This guy is a hero to the american people, and I wish we could ALL be more like him.
