Musings of a Punk Rock Father

So, anyone who has Tweeter stores near them may know what I'm talking about here...Melanie and I were watching TV when a commercial comes on for Tweeter, advertising those new DLP televisions. But it was the commercial's spokesman that we couldn't get past.

Let me say that I do not consider myself a shallow person, but I guess we are so inundated with "beautiful" people on TV that this guy stood out. Most notable is the large gap in his teeth. Now, I have a gap, too. Not a Letterman gap, but a gap nonetheless. But I could never see myself on TV, especially as the primary visual image associated with a large chain of electronics stores.

It's interesting to see someone on TV like this who doesn't quite fit in with what Extra, Inside Edition or whatever other "entertainment news" shows try to convince us that everyone looks like.

Or maybe I just thought the guy was weird looking, and I'm a bad person.
