Anatomy of a Blog Post
So, I'm sitting around the cube farm (hole in firewall still) wondering, "If I could use current presidential candidates as models for ads, what would I have them endorse?" (Someone has to wonder these things.) I was thinking of Hillary in her "conversation" pose, hawking Ethan Allen furniture.
I thought of Obama in his starched white open-collar shirts, doing that JC Penney pose he's got down.
I thought of John Edwards pretending to be a working man in his very new jeans, maybe endorsing Skoal.
Guiliani for some home security alarm system.
Huckabee for Fender basses. Etc.
So I find the perfect Obama shot. Then I did an image search for "JC Penney catalog" and got this. Game over. Nothing is as funny / stupid as old 70s fashion. Let the captioning begin.

Wow, I was going to comment on the hat, but Make the Logo Bigger's link to Furniture Porn just blew my mind (not to mention frying my eyeballs).

I'm pretty sure that's Yankee Doodle on the left.
