Incredible advertising. Schick’s straight forward approach to selling more razors to women is hilarious. Their cheeky little message about trimming the ol' hedges is marketing genius.

I Just Got Laid
Off that is. Yes, that’s right I’ve involuntary joined the ranks of 11.1 million unemployed Americans. You can label it what you want laid off, down-sized, let go, axed, terminated, canned, dismissed...Fired! It is all the same I no long have any place to be 9-5 Monday - Friday.
Am I worried? Yes. Am I going to be depressed and come to hate everyone and everything in this world? No. I’m actually relieved. Now it looks like I can take as much time as I like over the holiday season.
Looks like I'll need to put this documentary on my Netflix que --- Fired!

Yes We Can
Today, I jumped out of bed put on something blue and rushed out to the polls to be first inline. On my way out the door, I realized someone had stolen my Obama yard sign and replaced it with a McCain sign. I didn’t let this incident ruin my favorite day that only comes around every 4 years. I voted! And I voted with hope instead of fear.
But now that this exciting election season is coming to an end, I’m not sure what I’m going to do with myself after today. I’ve spent the last 9 months reading political blogs, staring at polls, volunteering for Maine Dems, and arguing with all and any republicans, and now it’s about to be over.
This has be an epic election season and I’m glad that I’ve played a part in all this excitement. I hope I don’t go through election withdrawals, but I’ll be back in full political swing in 2012.
Please don’t forget to VOTE!

This is the best political blunder caught on camera. Well, maybe not the best...but it still makes me laugh every time I watch.

We Have So Much at Stake This Time - Vote!
Why your vote counts.
Because elections today frequently are won by tiny margins, the mobilization of women – has the potential to change the political landscape in many states and perhaps the country as a whole.
Only 64% of the eligible voters in the United States voted in 2004. Worse yet, only 47% of 18-24 year olds voted—as compared to 71% of seniors 65 years and older.
No wonder Social Security is the third rail of politics while women’s issues like reproductive rights, peace, affirmative action, and the environment take a back seat. Women have enormous rights at stake in this election. Yet, we are the least registered and least voting population in the country. It’s time for women to make their voices heard...VOTE!
Your vote counts! Get to the polls and make the difference on November 4th!

We Must Never Forget
Today marks the three-year anniversary of Hurricane Katrina. Three years and the city still hasn't been rebuilt. Three years and many people still haven't returned home.
Hurricane Katrina was a human rights and humanitarian disaster. It exposed the painful reality that the wealthiest country in the world can forget and abandon those who are poor and black.
Close to 2,000 people lost their lives in the storm and the floods that followed while the Bush Administration watched. The tragedy of Hurricane Katrina will go down in history as one of the most shameful moments in American History.
To mark this horrific anniversary and to remind people to never forget and to never let this happen again, a powerful documentary opens today called Trouble in the Water. This award winning documentary directed and produced Carl Deal and Tia Lessin (Fahrenheit 9/11 and Bowling for Columbine) tells the story of Kimberly Rivers Roberts, an aspiring rap artist and 3rd ward resident, who films her story of surviving the storm and its aftermath.

Paris is Like, Totally Ready to Lead
Paris Hilton tells off John McCain for putting her in one of his Obama attack ad.
Last week the McCain campaign aired “TV Ad: Celeb” mocking Barack Obama popularity by comparing Obama to Paris Hilton and Britney Spears and suggesting that Obama was no more than a celebrity candidate unready to lead the nation. The ad has stirred up plenty of criticism already, notable from Paris’ mother Kathy, who donated $4,600 to McCain's campaign earlier in the year. Kathy responds,
This was "a complete waste of the country's time and attention at the very moment when millions of people are losing their homes and their jobs” Kathy stated to Huffington Post.
But Paris fires back at McCain today with help from Will Ferrel’s Funny or Die website with a funny spoof announcing that she “is like, totally ready to lead.”
"Hey America, I'm Paris Hilton and I'm a celebrity too. Only, I'm not from the olden days, and I'm not promising change like that other guy. I'm just hot. But then that wrinkly, white-haired guy used me in his campaign ad, which I guess means I'm running for president. So thanks for the endorsement white-haired dude."
Paris goes on to announce her energy policy, vice presidential pick and promises to paint the White House pink.
This may be a new low in US presidential campaigns, but spoof political ads are nothing new. And I too totally loves it!
