Dear sirs and madams,
I am a citizen of Washington County Minnesota, and I am writing you to notify
you of my disgust with your ad campaign.
I am a non-smoker, but your anti-tobacco ads advocate violence and depict
murder, trashing brides, and killing babies. As a professional, are these the
images you really want your names associated with?
I would hope that you realize that your campaign is not the sort of public
information welcome by an intelligent citizenry.
You can make your point without flooding our streets, airwaves, and peridicals
with your negative images.
It used to be that advertisers would try to improve their surroundings by
aiming above the ground level with their artwork and design. But your ads are
disgusting to the core.
I am going to continue publicly taking a stand against this corruption of our
public space. You will hear me denouncing the use of public funds by your
organization until you come forward with a more positive use of media.
Citizen of Washington Country, MN

What is with the new shows, they are turning into smut/drag? I like What not to wear, In a fix, Clean Sweep. But some of these new shows look awful - some show about drag queens, and then a new show with Martha Stewart. Please, Martha, you messed up go hide away and live a less public live. If she gets a second chance then at least a nice person like Pee Wee Herman should get a second chance.
This show, America's ugliest bathroom, is hilarious. Some of these people need to clean their bathroom. Makes me want to go scrub something right now. Why would people put carpet in the bathroom?
I was looking for a site which said what happened to Hilde. this site suggests that she actually lives in a castle and is married to a diplomat. I especially like some of the individual analyses: "After being an utter bitch to everyone and having just dropped acid, Hilde will glue 15 tons of horse poop to the walls".
Wenn ist das nunstuck geht und slotermeyer? Ja! Bayerhund das oder die flipperwaldt gespuhrt!
-- according to babelfish, this joke is untranslatable, it sees it as in English, --
If that is now stucco goes and more slotermeyer? Yes! Bavarian dog that or flipperwaldt gespuhrt!
