Well something that I will divulge about myself "Captain Random" is that I work in Advertising.

Below are a couple of funny videos about the "truth" in advertising:

The link below shows what can happen when a client gets a hold of a great creative idea and makes it there own. In this case, what if Microsoft marketed the iPod??

Here is a funny video entitled, "Truth in Advertising" about the things people are actually saying and doing, but don't say and do. Confused? Just watch the video...

Yawning: An Epidemic??

Haven't posted anything for a while. My apologies.

Ever noticed that when one person yawns, everyone else close by will start? Why is that?!? For no particular reason, I noticed about 5 times today that one person would yawn and then about 4 other people around them would yawn right after them. In one situation, a girl yelled out, "No yawning!" after someone in the room began yawning. Why is yawning so contagious?

(On a side note, I've yawned twice just writing this entry, thinking about yawning. I'm pretty sure it's an epidemic.)
