"When the Moon in the Sky..."

Violins, harps, a soft background choir...a beautiful melody...it sets the mood...

...for romance, dreaming, meditation, you know - that sort of stuff.

What makes me laugh out loud is when I hear such an arrangement in a radio jingle and the subject of their tender promotion is...

"Capital Paci-fic Ho-mes"...meow... A home builder?!

Puh-leeze! What's next?

Imagine the white sand on a gorgeous beach, palm trees swaying in a gentle breeze, soft music entering your sleepy ears, angelic voices singing the praise of your luxurious neighborhood...

...colonoscopy lab?
...bankruptcy counselor?
...sewer tank manufacturer?

Shouldn't the music match the subject? Or something...?

The one that really gets me annoyed is the advertisement that says that high fructose corn syrup is fine in moderation. Oh well - we better have some in moderation then. Is that one coke or 2?
