It is a public post so check it out if you are so inclined. I use some language that some might find offensive. Just so you know.<BR/><BR/>AARP has not tried to find me but I am pretty sure that I am among the oldest fiends. <BR/><BR/>A few years ago MPR did one of their April Fools news stories about an agreement having been reached for the projection of advertisement onto to moon from earth. The first such ad was going to be a simple and recognizable logo but it was going to be keep secret until it was unveiled. I completely missed the "ha ha April Fools" part and thought this was a real story. I told my whole grad school seminar class about this. I was horrified! Upset! They all just looked at me like I was crazy. It was a day later that I figured out what had happened. Honestly it still makes me laugh at myself when I think of it. This conversation really makes me think of it.
