A word about my blog .....

I'm using this blog to keep notes on my life and experiences, plus to keep track of my own recovery from a stroke (December 2006).

For those of you who were not aware, my brother, John, died on February 10, 2010. His remains were cremated and interred at Green Hills Memorial Park.

0805 secret obsession

There was a piece on all the news shows this week concerning the U.S. censorship of a new Calvin Klein commercial featuring a nude Eva Mendes promoting the fragrance “Secret Obsession”. I think it was created intentionally that way, since it resulted in a lot of free publicity and anyone who wants to see the commercial can probably find it online somewhere. If it was done tastefully, the perfume would have premiered quietly and would have been one of dozens of others on the perfume counters. The marketers probably planned on making waves with the ad and it worked.

And yes, I’ve seen the uncensored ad. Blog research is such a pain these days, but someone has to do it.
