Maybe we should have a weekly nomination process for what we as metjax posters think is the largest or just overdue mention of wasting of our tax dollars.
I think it might be fun
Maybe someone can think of a better name for the award

I would like to make the very first nomination for the award and I think it very deserveably should go to the St Johns river management district.

You know the stupid comercial where the piece of sod is rolled into the E R room. I know that some commercials are effective just because they annoy people but I am mostly annoyed because I feel I am paying for it. Its a part of every newscast. I admit I don't know the particulars of just how much we are paying for this.

If by mentioning it I gave it a strong arguement that its working. Then that may be the only arguement that it works. I would hope on a newscast an advertiser would want to identify the audience Silly stupid commercials may find there mark on the Simpsons, but there is a long list of intellegent reasons not to water your lawn to much.

Please comment on both my nomination and the possibility of metjax giving out an award.

The commercial itself my not be that great but I think that getting the message out in whatever way is very beneficial to the cause. There is a lot more talk on the health of our river systems lately and only good can come from that, IMO.
