A Lame Valentine Present

While driving around town the last week or so, I've heard probably the dumbest commercial. There's a guy who gives his woman a present, and it turns out to be that he's named a star (a real one in the sky) after her. The commercial goes on about "Make your special someone feel like a star" or some such crap. "Call the National Star" registry. What a crock.

I've given some lame-ass presents in my life, but a "non present" like that is just beyond comprehension to me. The woman in the ad sounds so totally excited that she "got that". I wonder what the woman who recorded it actually thought.

The stupidity of the American public never ceases to amaze me. To quote George Carlin.. "Take your average person, and realize that half of them are stupider than that".
