OK, is anyone else seriously annoyed by the Tampax "you can help a girl in Africa go to school by buying tampons" commericals? They just....I dont' know what it is, but the way it's worded, and the strange two-girls-in-a-hut (is the one girl showing the other how to use a tampon? And then they walk out hand in hand all excited cause now she can go to school?)...it annoys me. I don't doubt the message, and I'm all for good works, but...
I don't give a good gorram about relevant, Wash. Or objective. And I ain't so afraid of losing something that I ain't gonna try to have it. You and I would make one beautiful baby. And I want to meet that child one day. Period.

There's something off about those commercials, I agree.
But it is actually a really big problem, with huge implications, that doesn't get much attention, so I guess you gotta give them something.

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."
Yeah, I've been thinking about what's getting under my skin about that commercial, but I can't quite verbalize it.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.
The Patriots are so going to lose in the Superbowl. They have no answer for Walter Payton or The Refridgerator.

That's pretty much where I am (I mean, seriously, having to use dirty rags and paper?) But then, I haven't seen the commercials.

God. Everything out on the field looks like it's made of lead.

The kicks just keep getting shittier and shittier.
Imagine what it's going to be like in another hour.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
One problem with that ad is they say the girl can't go to school because she doesn't have "protection," which just makes me think of condoms.

Hey, as long as Bill Buckner doesn't let the ball go through his legs, they should be OK.
