The 9 y.o.: What is with this lame ad to visit the Gulf States? Just a minute ago the weather guy was all apocalyptic about Hurricane Katia and now all I can think about is Katrina.
The 12 y.o.: And oil spills. And tornadoes. Anyway, why would they stick their tourist ads on right after the weatherman during hurricane season?
The 9 y.o.: WHY would anyone want to visit the Gulf states?
The 12 y.o.: Oh look – “Brought to you by BP”. Doesn’t BP stand for Big Polluters? Like just in case the images of happy people frolicking on the white beaches for 60 seconds would make us forget about the worst oil spill in the history of mankind, they slap a big ole logo at the end to remind us. You keep it classy, BP.
