No. 143: Media

I promise you, I'm gonna post the Seven for last Sunday. I have them, they're written down, I swear. But right now, I wanna talk briefly about an article I found on Digg about the Sudan, found here. There is an add on the bottom of this article:

"Teeth Whiteners Exposed"
7 Teeth Whitening Products Tested, Rated, and Reviewed. A Must Read!
www.Best-Teeth-Whitening.com


For a second, it actually made me physically sick.

But then again, I can't begin to imagine how much I must do every day that makes other people feel the same way.
Living without hypocrisy and without contradiction of belief is extremely difficult. The tragedy in the Sudan should be an outrage to all. What's horrible is that while I was deeply saddened by the article and pissed off at the people we put in charge to deal with stuff like this, I was more angry at the teeth whitening ad being on the same page.

Strange, no? Our priorities?
