Good stuff, except for this.  You're skewing your bounce rate on the homepage by doing this and turning it into a completely inaccurate number.  Once that pop-up loads, GA sees it as another page load within that user session, thus reducing that bounce rate on homepage.  If a person only looks at home page, that pop up loads and they close it, then leave the site without looking at another page, this user would not be counted as a bounce.  I can make site's my bounce rate 0% by this method, load an iframe or pop up on every page loaded with GA code only. Then bounce rate would be 0 since they "looked at more than one page."
