Three advertising things of note (no links, I'm being lazy):
1. While in the car over the weekend, heard a radio ad for NBC's Olympic coverage, where they said they were "bringing the Olympics home." I know what they meant, but for a competiton started in Greece and revived by a Frenchman, home is on another continent.
2. I'm wondering if all the granola-munching proto-hippies who are Dave Matthews fans are having trouble reconciling the use of "The Space Between" in ads for Black Hawk Down. It's oddly fitting, though.
3. Just as Sarah was turning the channel to tune in Temptation Island 2 (no comment), what ad was playing on Fox? One for a genital herpes medication.
The prosecution rests.
