I LOVE the character Flo. she ha a fantatic delivery. She's also cute without being too sexy. It's nice to see a pretty, fresh face, with funny line, rather than a stick model with huge boobs and half her clothes off. Love it or hate it, you know the commercial, and that's the goal.. great marketing on the part of Progressive.. People, it’s a joke about the shoes…geesh.

I also believe that if you're not part of the solution, then you're part of the problem. For this reason I will not buy Any Cheetos Products while these ads continue. K

She is quirky and a breath of fresh air. She doesn't write the lines, she just does a good job delivering them.

One of country music band which I do love to listen to is The Dixie Chicks. They really know how to attract their audience’s attention and gather more fans and I’m no exception. They’re a great band thus they’ve won many awards and their popularity is fairly remarkable while in a concert. Tickets become pricy and hard to get. Lately a friend has recommended me a site where to compare ticket prices for free before purchasing. http://www.ticketwood.com/concerts/Smashing-Pumpkins-Tickets/index.php <a href="http://www.ticketwood.com/concerts/Smashing-Pumpkins-Tickets/index.php" rel="nofollow">Tickets</a> Country music has a special position in my heart.

While I don't think television is 'unraveling the moral fabric of society', I do agree the makers of Cheetos are sending a message 'for people to be total assholes'. Their latest is worse. Some office worker finds a cubicle who's contents are rather neat (obsessively neat), and this worker is encouraged to leave Cheetos and 'Cheeto dust' on business cards and other contents and objects in the cubicle. Including crushing a Cheeto inside a laptop. What the hell is that?! I know most people don't learn their manners and social skills from commercials (at least I hope they don't); I still think this is a rather poor advertising campaign. At least it is for me. The world has enough assholes without anyone encouraging them. I may never eat a Cheeto again. Just my 2 cents…
