Forgive me for the lack of posts lately. It's not that I haven't had time to write a decent post. I haven't had anything to turn into a decent post.

I haven't had any profound thoughts, work has been ordinary and the news has been mundane unless you're interested in politics, which I'm not. In fact, November 2 can't get here fast enough in that respect. I'm so sick of the commercials, especially one in particular that I wish I could find online and share.

But I can't so I'm going to do my best to describe it for you...

Terry Spicer is standing in front of a map of the United States. He points out where his county is... then points out D.C. where the president lives... then California where Nancy Pelosi lives. He proceeds to say he doesn't know much about her or California... and that he's only been there twice, once to watch the University of Alabama win the National Championship. Then the commercial ends.

What?

It's the dumbest political commercial we run. Why should I make my decision based on that useless geography lesson? But then, as one of my coworkers pointed out the other day, political commercials aren't made for the intelligent.
