I spent a few minutes yesterday complaining about the ads I’ve been seeing during the Olympics. Not only are most not that great, they’re replayed so many times that I’ve become as sick of them as I now am of beach volleyball. Anyway, Slate’s Seth Stevenson has finally weighed in with his take on the Ad Olympics. What’s yours?

Nice quote from Maya Angelou found on a BoingBoing post: “I’ve learned that you can tell a lot about a person by the way he or she handles these three things: a rainy day, lost luggage, and tangled Christmas tree lights.”

Remember Hydrox cookies? The Oreo look-alikes are coming back, as are several other long-dead brands. From the NY Times.

That’s it for now. Tomorrow, I will do another book post. Betcha can’t wait…
