I saw a commercial today advertising st louis. the concept of advertising a city to people who already live there seemed a little strange to me, but Im sure there are reasons. anyway, the basic idea of the commercial was a man living in new york talking on the phone to his parents about how great his apartment was, only in actuality, his apartment was cramped and expensive and had a terrible view and shook when trains went by, and I suppose the point was that in new york, this was a good apartment. so basically it was a commercial badmouthing new york, and when it was over, it cut to a screen that said "St. Louis: We've Got It Good." weird, huh? apparently people defecting to new york is a big problem here.
