Hmmmm.... Does this mean that BSA is in charge of it's own advertising
again? And that we'll see more TV & print ads from BSA in the near future?
For a while there, I was getting sick of the ad that espoused
Scouting-type values and their importance to youth and then finding out it
was for an outboard motor manufacturer. Don't even get me started on the
YMCA, Big Brothers/Big Sisters, or "United Way working with the NFL" ads.
I mean.......the Girl Scouts even get their own flavor of Edy's ice
cream (Thin Cookie Mint). A portion of the sales goes to the GSUSA. What up
wid dat???
The voices in my head are telling me to log off and have a nap now.
