Little Consumer

Behold the power of advertising! It begins early, and Nathan has been evidence of the advertising influence in our "wonderful", consumer-driven society. "Daddy, I wanna get one of those little helicopters that flies in your house!" "Hey, Mommy! I want one of those four-wheelers that you ride on like my Mustang car." "Daddy, we need to get one of those new GMC trucks like yours!" Though I could run out a long list of these, I'll conclude with one of my favorites (sorry, if I've mentioned this one before)... Upon entering Wal-Mart for a short shopping list around lunch time, Nathan spotted a Subway restaurant inside. "Hey mommy! You wanna eat at SUBWAY?! You wanna EAT FRESH?!"
