The Temple Of ... Well, Something

Post by temerityb » Wed Mar 31, 2021 7:02 pm

I don't know how old this is, but these watches are amazingly ... well, what are they? Only Tim Temple could get behind stuff worse than Croton's current line and expect to strike paydirt.

The site talkaboutwatches.com also seems to be defunct.

Was this the shitshow Davis got involved in?

It's impressive that Tim Temple thinks that he's even slightly relevant after all these years. Even during his heyday, Temple was nothing more than a (possibly) medium fish in a very small pond.

Always slightly dorky, afflicted with the worst case of acid reflux of any on-air hawkster, Temple sold, I'm sure, a lot of wartchs to plenty of people--I myself bought a few from him, particularly back when he was on the old Shop-At-Home network. But that was, Christ, a fucking decade ago.

Then, he teamed up with Mongo, aka Michael Davis, a drunkard convicted loser who burned every bridge he crossed, to flog bullshit to the last few fucking spastics who still followed them. They sold the crumbs from the big table of the Florida Wartche Triangle to those who were still too fucking stupid to improve themselves to, say, Orient or Seiko.

Now, he's (kinda) back, selling Chinese wartches with Pandas and shit on them.

And, not surprisingly, nobody really gives a fuck.

He was back - the link reveals the site is no longer there. Maybe he got hired by the Liquidation Channel or somethin'. Lucky for him he has his award-winning photography and his Nashville recording studio to fall back on.

I guess, anyway.
