    Most are so stupid, why bother with the ads? When you have to wonder after the commercial is over what they were trying to say or sell in the first place, I'd say it was a loss of time and money - and my time! Another reason for not watching tv anymore; we watch news and call it good.

    I usually mute the commercials and get back to quilting, I hate them so much. Is it just me, or do the commercials copy each other like that googy girl on Progressive and the can't hold a tune guy on Nationwide. And dancing, are there any commercials out there that don't incorporate dancing into the message. I'm so tired of seeing wiggly, squiggly people. Maybe I wouldn't mind if I was skinny and could wiggle like they do, too.

    Commercials are the reason I DVR most everything I really want to watch just so I can buzz through them.
    My all time hated commercial was a few years back when Quizno's had that awful rat-looking thing with the big ugly teeth saying Quizno subs. Haven't ate there since.

    The bathtubs on a cliff are in California. Down around Big Sur area. There are also hot tubs on a cliff in the same area.

    DH and I were in Japan a few years ago at a Ryokan (small country inn) they had private soaking hot tubs (hot mineral spring fed). We booked one for early morning and it was on a cliff overlooking the most beautiful river and forest.
