OK, I admit it. I'm a dinosaur.

I have to say, sometimes I feel like I’m a dinosaur. I look at our society and wind up shaking my head so often that I practically wind up with a concussion.

My latest reason for shaking my head and wagging my finger is in response to this news article, which reports that a Washington state health board apparently needed public protest to help them discern what was in poor taste.

The health board wanted to promote awareness of colorectal cancer and the importance of screening for early detection. To do so, they put up billboards that said, “WHAT’S UP YOUR BUTT?” And apparently it was a public outcry that convinced them to come up with a different tactic. The signs have now been removed.

If you need further proof that I’m a dinosaur, go to some earlier posts here and here. And please – please – let me know if I’ve gone the way of the dodo bird or if there are other folks like me out there somewhere. Sometimes I get real lonely.
