  Sleep Out for the Homeless: Worst Fundraiser Ever

  I am one of those in northwest Arkansas that saw first-hand what Mark is talking about above. I would encourage the author to be as compassionate with those who want to do something like a campout. These are well-intentioned, though perhaps sometimes misguided, people who are floundering around looking for a way to do the right thing. If anyone can get hold of the organizer before the event takes place, you may have a chance for a really teachable moment. And in reality, what kind of awareness-raising event could ever be held that would truly replicate a homeless experience? Nothing. For example, if someone showed a documentary, he or she could be criticized because a film can't replicate the experience, and the audience is sitting in a comfy environment with plenty of food and shelter. So what do we do? We do the best we can with whatever resources each of us has that we can bring to the problem.

  Burger King Ad Goes Seven Inches Too Far

  I wonder who in the world is running Burger King's ad department. They put out the raunchiest stuff, including this "BLOW" ad. The BK king is just plain creepy, and they show him in people's bedrooms, peeping at folks through windows, shaking the square butt, etc. They have taken "sexifying" advertising to a new level, and not a good one. How about just advertising the product for its merits?
