...What's really getting me mad is all the commercials on tv about pills, almost every commercial these days...
...
...The really "great" one is the "boner pill" commercials that they show at all times of the day and evening.

I ment to reply to this sooner, but somehow I didn't. Better late than never?

I agree with you about this one-hundred percent! It is not just on television, it is also on the radio and even on shopping bags. A couple of weeks ago, while shopping, I noticed that the bags had advertising slogans and images on them promoting various medications. Including one with a rather lewd outline image for an "enhancement" medication.

On the radio, they have two particular commercials that really irritate me.

One is for a phycotropic drug, it is being advertised to parent for use on their childern. The stated purpose is to deal with their behavioral problems and help them learn better in schools. What happened to teaching childern dicipline, honor, and respect? That would take care of the greater majority of such siutations. AS for learning better, get the child excited about learning and hire better teachers and retrain or fire the bad teachers.

The other is for, here we go again, male enhancement. There are several of them playing on the radio for several different products; however, the one the irritates me the most is a new commercial that makes a patently false statement as though it is a known fact. There are two versions of the commerical the original one had a longer statement and the newer shorter commerical has a shorter version of the statement. I will quote the original longer statement with boldface to show which parts are empahised by the tone of voice in the commerical. The statement is, "Sex is important in every relationship. None can survive without it. When I hear that, I think "Oh yea? What about the relationship between a parent and a child? What about a student and teacher? What about a doctor and patient. What about men of the cloth and their flocks? ..."

What view of the world would childern get by hearing those commercials? I think that would have a bigger effect on the childern than view well done tasteful art, reguardles of the level of dress of the subject of the art. Isolate childern from art but don't isolate them from those advertisement, there is somthing wrong with this picture.

Interesting discussion. Here, down unda', we have a very mixed bag of opinions, just like all you it seems. I believe homosexuality is still illegal in at least one state, maybe more, but we have one of the largest Gay & Lesbian mardi gras in the world every year in Sydney.

News readers trying to be my friend... huh! just read the news in clear and concise terms. I don't need the social comment and emotionalising of the facts. Have you also noticed it's almost always a mature, serious (but still handsome) male reader and a pretty young female news reader. :-s

As for Poser and porn, that only came up after I purchased it. The store I got it fom was well versed in all types of obscure softwear and so had a clue. But later, everyone who sees the program start up raises an eyebrow and looks at me like a pervert. Until I show them some finished work. Usually that shuts them up... but not always. Then they want to go out and buy it :) until they hear the price!

Well, that's the view from this part of the world :whistle:

I agree, for news presentations, I prefer (like Joe Friday in "Dragnet" used to say) The facts mame just the facts.

Now, Brett is upside-down, so, in which way we've to consider his opinions on this topic ? :-k :-k :-k

Or...I he up-side-up and the rest of us are up-side-down?

As in relativity, it all depends on your frame of reference and there are no special frames of reference. ;-)
