As I was driving through town yesterday running errands and looking for a new mouse (the old one was 5 years old and still works at a level of 95%, I'd say, but that missing 5% is just so frustrating...), I saw three Statues of Liberty, one Captain America, and two homeless guys holding signs, all adverting for some store or another. Since when did that become a good way to advertise? Are they going for the pity vote, or what? All it did to me was bug me. Since when did "mascot on a street corner" become good career choice?
Oh, and I did get a new mouse. It's amazing how far we've come in 5 years in regard to mouse technology--my old one had a left, right, and click wheel, and the new one has a left, right, and a click wheel. Sometimes I just feel let down by the future.

It's not a photo-optic mouse?
How 20th century....sniff.
It is a la-zer mouse! Just like the last one! I was expecting so much more!
I see the Statue of Liberty guy (girl?) here too, & for some reason it bugs me as well- not sure why.
On the mousitical front: my new one doesn't have a wire attached to it!
That was the other thing that bugged me about the mascots--two of the Statue of Liberties were guys. That's just wrong.
The Statue of Liberty is for that tax office.
I'm not sure about those homeless guys, I kind of thought that there was some kind of ordinance about stationary signs on a corner- or something.
