Last week, I mixed up my own ad on Mr. Romney's Bain Capital years, highlighting an aspect to the story I felt the pols and the press were neglecting, one that really matters to the average, tax-paying American.
Thanks to you wonderful people, it has become my most-viewed video. No telling if it will ever go viral or bacterial or whatever trendy infection the kids are into these days. But I ain't sitting around waiting to find out. Time to make the doughnuts.
Or maybe the pignuts.
Among the many, very positive comments the last video garnered were a few noting a similarity between my voice and that of the advertising genius Hal Riney, who wrote and voiced Ronald Reagan's brilliant and effective ads, known popularly as "Morning in America" and "Bear in the Woods."
I hadn't thought about Riney, but realized I'd been unconsciously "doing" him on the voiceover. Which got me thinking. Which, as y'all know, is not always a good idea with me.
I was pretty excited when this one came to me, and I learned a lot doing it, but now I'm wondering if it was all that smart, after reading Jesselyn Radack's warning on Wednesday that "pork" is on Homeland Security's list of words that trigger automatic surveillence.
Now I'll never get a moment's peace from those people.
Oh, well, too late for that now. Just closing the sty door after the sow's gone, trying to get the Spam back in the can. Best thing to do is pack up your truffles in your old kit bag and put some lipstick on it. Let's get cracklin'.

It's pretty much fun enough, I think. Worth wasting of forty seconds of your life.
And, if you disagree. blame lineatus. She encouraged me.
Update: And you can blame Clem Yeobright, too. Thanks, buddy.
