Am I the only person not engulfed in the HD craze? It's conquered Dan Marino and numerous gawking kids, but not me! I really despise the commercial where a fat guy is getting a new HD system and he doesn't even recognize when he's on an HD channel...then he calls to his wife to come in and tells the salesman, "she loves HD." How can she love HD so much if they're just now getting it? Does she spend hours at a friend's house and can't stop gushing about it to her fat husband in order to avoid making love or something? For me, I think my TV has plenty of definition. I cannot imagine HD being so much better to merit a. buying a new tv; b. getting an HD source at home; and c. installation from firedog. Humph.
.
On a similarly advertising-based note (I'm beginning to think I missed my calling), when my mother came home the other day and said she felt bloated, I instantly remembered the ubiquitous Dannon Activita commercials with women talking to each other about irregularity and bloating and the "Activia Challenge." So Mom and I are taking the Activia Challenge...one cup of pretty tasty yogurt (and I don't usually like yogurt) a day for fourteen days and supposedly our digestive systems will sort themselves out. This would be a major coup for me. I'll keep you updated.
