Okay, so it’s been a tongue-in-cheek kind of evening here. A few friends and I are watching the Cleveland Indians play the Chicago White Sox, and we’ve been celebrating Memorial Day. I’d like to wish you, dear reader, a great Memorial Day, and I hope that you take time to consider how much you owe to our men and women of the military. With that said, I can’t believe there’s a border patrol advertisement behind the hitters at Jacob’s Field in Cleveland. I love inappropriately-placed ads. At our newspaper, we usually have space for a Mason advertisement that talks about getting to know “the real” George Washington. These ads make you do a double-take and wonder if the heat is starting to have an affect on you. “Did I read that right?” But then you say “No, that’s not it. The heat has had an effect on them!” Bad marketing, you know?
