Communist Chic

Now I've heard of some stupid things...like the guy at the Seattle Airport yesterday that made a bomb threat in the hopes of stopping the flight he missed...but the new Louis Vuitton add campaign is without a doubt the stupidest thing I have ever seen...

Who would look at this photo of Mikhail Gorbachev, former dictatorial leader of The Evil Empire, and think, "I want his bag?"

For future reference, communism is not fun, communisim is not chic, communism is not to be celebrated, and communism should be remembered for the horrible things it did.

UPDATE: Oh yeah, and P.S. when did Gorbachev start looking like Dick Cheney?

Adventures at Sea-Tac

Given the events over the weekend going to the airport of a major city has become a little more difficult...Late last night I was headed toward Sea-Tac and the line of of cars headed that way was much more than I thought would have been for Sunday night...now there is construction going on for some new light-rail tracks so that may have been part of the problem...but I was headed to the short term parking ramp so I didn't get a chance to see the "arrivals" drop off until parking and walking across the parking ramp sky bridge...the cars are backed up around the corner of the road...I have been the airport a lot recently and it seems that it was just busy and there wasn't anything different about the security...
