Glenn at Contractor Peon is highly unimpressed with Army and Navy TV commercials these days (aside: where have the Air Force commercials gone?). He contends that people's lives are too boring to read about in a blog, much less watch on TV, and nowhere near all the action seen in those ads. Okay, fine. I'll agree that my naval career wasn't an awful lot like all the military recruiting ads you see.
But he steps over the line toward the end:
So why read the blog of some dork in Iowa that likes to play with his Ham radio?
Well, I may not live in Iowa, but c'mon, why bring Amateur Radio into it, Glenn?
In the words of the little old lady, when the pastor of her church expounded on the evils of gossip, "You done quit preachin' an' gone to meddlin'." :)
