Changing Names

            I have been seeing tv adsfrom organizations whom think they are slick. Changing Names is usually logical,but when you do that with organizations that are fund raisers for starving children it is seceptive &,in my opinion' flat out wrong  Simular to what George Carlin said about medical conditions "Somehow they think if you change the name of the condition that somehow you will change the condition! Baloney!!!  It doesnt work good that way"
           Years ago the ads were from "Christain Childrens Fund"  recently the organization started calling itself "Child Fund".  Are these people even awake over there? Its the same spokesperson, same guilt trip based wording : "Ahsam is starving in a foreign land' & he knows the water is not safe to drink, but he doesn't know you & your caring personality", as well as the same "toll free" number shown on the screen.
           Some have asked me why do i like watching dvds. Well, theres no commercials like "Child fund" on there making me feel bad about my lack of income to support starving children. Now if you will excuse me, time for BURN NOTICE  Season One on dvd. Thanks for listening to my rant. Have a nice day.
