Have you seen the HP printer commercial depicting a little baby in his walker, all alone, cruising in and out of automobile and semi traffic!? Is HP nuts? Well they got my attention, albeit in a horrible, irresponsible way and I guess that's the point. Why not just depict the baby being squished by the semi while we're at it. I've got to stop watching TV.
Actually, I kind of like that commercial. The kid is cute and some of them can really travel in their walkers. I just thought it was a comment on a child's first chance at being independent. What worried me more was the picture the parents took of the child in front of a canyon, with only a split rail fence behind him! Or, maybe the whole thing is a comment on what parents are likely to take pictures of anyway? Babies and scenery? Erika always advised--don't take a picture of a mountain without someone in it! Ten years later you won't care about the mountain, but with luck you'll still like the person you saw it with!
