I'm Ready To Give Up

Spent part of my weekend & early Monday morning tuned into London Ontario legacy station AM 980 CFPL

A long and mostly positive history in the community but as we all know things have changed & not for the better.

Listened to a commercial on the station - heard it twice telling me that the sun is 93 billion miles from earth.

The business owner voiced his own spot. He's an optician & he was selling sun glasses in his 60 second commercial.

Sun glasses. Let that sink in.

I don't know whether to laugh or cry or do neither & just give up. 

I'm open to suggestions.

As long as it's not an ad for Sunglass hut, I'm happy.

Could have been worse.  Olivia could have cracked wise, or Chloe could have screamed.
