I enjoy writing. I don't actually make a living with my English degree, so I keep a blog for fun. The blog is first draft, and as a former editor I apologize for any weird errors that may be present. I do not apologize for writing about things that matter to me. Thanks for reading.

Billboard in Chicago Causes Furor

ABC News: 'Life's Short. Get a Divorce'

This billboard is...I don't know. Awful? I don't disagree with the message, but the photos send a completely different message that makes me uncomfortable.

I linked to a photo and readers' comments...they were more interesting than the actual news story (but there will be a link to that, too). In the comments and story, the men are more upset by this than women are, which I find surprising since they are the ones "upgrading to a newer model" in most divorce cases.

UPDATE: Maybe this is why the law firm feels the need to advertise...
