I wish we had a few ad agencies in Santa Fe!  Maybe I could get a little work from them.... so I could buy myself some cool technology... maybe an iphone... And then Instagram...

The move to digital was a bit premature, for as usual in the US, we claim we don’t even though we do believe everything pouring out of advertising agencies. 

All a manufacturer has to do is make a slick looking ad for some technological wonder (a car, portable device, camera, phone) and you’ll have 75% of the men in the country panting like they’re in heat. If gear heads spent more time with people than machines, we would have a more understanding and friendlier society.
