Subliminal advertising watchdog.

I saw a subliminal advertisement the other day...but just for a second.

My outlook on life - we’re all on the Hindenburg anyway…no point fighting over the window seat.

I don't think I saw any before I had to go buy that Pepsi.

"The other versions will disappear. Even the 35 million tapes of Star Wars out there won’t last more than 30 or 40 years. A hundred years from now, the only version of the movie that anyone will remember will be the DVD version [of the Special Edition], and you’ll be able to project it on a 20’ by 40’ screen with perfect quality. I think it’s the director’s prerogative, not the studio’s to go back and reinvent a movie." - George Lucas

I like to think of myself as enlightened, and not influenced by advertising, but recently my local supermarket chain redid the labels on their generic brand of soda.

Gone was the plain lettering of "Select Brand Cola" or "Select Brand Cherry Cola" or even "Dr. Select Brand"

Now there are sharp new logos on the bottles, including the renamed "The Dr." and "cherry" (all lower case!). Suddenly I find myself drinking them, despite being the brands I turned my nose up to six months ago.

Maybe I'm not as enlightened as I thought.
