The United States Army has a lot of work to do in trying to get people to enlist. No one is signing up anymore. I’m exaggerating. But the point is that this Iraq war has turned a lot of people off of the military in …
Greatest Christian Hymns of All Time radio programme

Jet Set: The Magazine for Today’s Stylish Traveler
Traveling is one of the best all-time favorite hobby of most people. It is very seldom that you will find a person who wants to be locked up away from the world (except monks, perhaps), and even couch potatoes have been known to watch travel shows. This shows that …
BBC World Service Radio
I started listening to BBC’s World Service programming about a year ago. The public radio station in my community would broadcast the British news service overnight from about midnight to 5am, when NPR took over. Although it still represents a Western viewpoint, I have found that the …
Home Depot Joey Logano commercials
For years, Home Depot has sponsored Tony Stewart in the NASCAR Cup Series. His bright orange, number 20 car was always recognizable, and Tony and his team did a host of commercials for the company, some of them darn entertaining.
With the advent of 2009, though, Stewart has left …
Two Forever Lenox Rings (magazine ad)

This was the free replacement subscription offered to me when Domino magazine went out of business. This magazine I would not have chosen to subscribe to or even purchase an issue of. But as that decision has been made for me I continue to receive it every month.

Fox News Channel
You know, Fox News gets a lot of flak for being “biased and skewing the facts”. People act like this is some travesty. Yeah, because no media outlet has ever been biased or skewed data before. I mean, to quote ESPN, C’mon Man!
Yes, I know, Fox …
Zoning
“Zoning” by an unknown author at Entrepreneur.com is an important piece of information for home based business owners. Not only does it advise a home based business owner where to find information about their city’s zoning ordinance, but what you can do if you business is considered “illegal”.
Since I …
Ramparts Magazine
Ramparts Magazine is a tough item to review because it ceased publication over 30 years ago! However, since it is still available via Ebay, I figured I would write a quick review on the magazine. Ramparts was a publication of the New left of the 1960’s and centered on …

GoDaddy Danica Patrick commercial campaign

SunStar Sunday Newspaper
It is very important that we keep ourselves informed. In this world, being informed is a protection and the same time a weapon. It is important that we will watch the news, or listen to radio news broadcasts or read the newspaper.

PBS - Programming/Pledge Drives
PBS is an awesome network that brings many shows to television that otherwise wouldn’t be there. There’s no doubt it’s the leader in children’s programming. Sesame Street still educates and entertains. Senior citizens can watch reruns of The Lawrence Welk Show. Music and science shows from …
EUREKA TIMES STANDARD NEWS PAPER

The Puma Store (magazine ad)
Let’s take a trip back to the 1980’s, more specifically to The Bronx, where Puma sneakers (with the fat laces), Gazelle glasses and asymmetrical haircuts were all the rage. Upon perusing Blender magazine, I was delighted to see an ad for The Puma Store. First of all, …
GameInformer Magazine
Anyone who has shopped at their friendly local GameStop store has probably been pitched a subscription to the chain’s monthly magazine - GameInformer. Not too many people have actually bitten on the offer, though, and as someone who finally gave in and bought it, I have to say …
KYMX 96.1 Morning Show
One of the stations I like to listen to for music content is KYMX, 96.1. This station plays a mix of music (hence, the call letters) from a variety of genres. You hear music from the 70’s, 80’s, and 90’s, as well as music of today. …

Ryan Porter (MSN.com Journalist)
I usually enjoy reading the news that is linked on MSN.com, and mostly find the articles informative, entertaining, interesting and the perfect length to stimulate the mind on those hum-drum days at work. HOWEVER, this particular reporter never ceases to amaze me.

CaressBrazilian.com (magazine ad)
Nicole Scherzinger is the face on this ad. But I don’t think she’s actually Brazilian. Just because she has long dark hair and a fresh face, she is the new face for this product. The ad itself looks really really cheesy. And the palm …
