Tax Man Cometh Ad

So did you guys see this? I, in fact, hadn't because I don't watch much TV (and therefore I don't see many commercials).

One of my professors showed it in class today and it just made me laugh:

Nike/Tiger Woods Ad

I hate the idea that I'm still discussing Tiger Woods on here, but it's hard to not hear about him lately (and since November) so here goes:

Have you guys seen the latest Nike ad featuring Tiger Woods? If not, here it is:


What do you guys think of it?

I, personally, think it puts creepy to a whole new level. And to use a dead person for personal gain - how terrible! Not to mention your own father! How demeaning. Was this suppose to gain him sympathy votes?



P.S. Don't forget to leave me a comment below on your thoughts! As always, I'd love to hear from you.

"Joe the Plumber" Has No Plumbing License

Too good to be true? The [Toledo] Blade reports that Joe Wurzelbacher - or "Joe the Plumber" as we now know him has said he doesn't even have a plumbing license and that he doesn't need one because he works for someone else - Newell Plumbing & Heating Co. Wurzelbacher said he works under Al Newell’s license, but according to Ohio building regulations, he must maintain his own license to do plumbing work. Furthermore, he is also not registered to operate as a plumber in Ohio, which means he’s not a plumber.

Anyone that watched the third presidential dabate last night noticed how many times "Joe the Plumber" was brought up by McCain. McCain kept bringing using "Joe the Plumber" as an example in the debate of someone who wants to buy a plumbing business would be hurt by Barack Obama's tax plans, even though Obama's plan would tax less than McCain's in reality.

Another fact check by CNN showed that a recent study indicated that 100% of McCain's ads had been "advertisements attacking Barack Obama", which McCain denied last night at debate

I really wanted to blog about my thoughts about each of the debates - but time just didn't allow for that. 18 days until the election! I am definitely going to miss the excitement of the election season - it's been like no other.
