We've been watching the live coverage (the early morning one) and most of the commercials seem to be (we TIVO, so we skip through them for the most part) either sponsor commercials, SAAB and the like, or those $19.95 specials - call now and you can get more...you go Billy Mays..

Yes! If that's the same "get more" commercial I've seen 8 million times in the last week or so, then it has totally corrupted my mind. When Teigyr and I went to a local beach yesterday to do OWS practice, and the lifeguard said, "Each length is 135 yards, but the number you REALLY want is: 6 and 3/4!", I thought: WHAT IS THIS GUY TRYING TO TELL ME???
