AT&T/Cingular/whatever it is is one of the primary advertisers during the post-apocolyptic TV show Jericho. On the show's website, they have brief video clips, with an AT&T ad at the beginning of each.

The end result of this, seeing as Jericho is one of two shows I watch and I'm not exposed to their ads in other contexts, is that their jingle is firmly associated with nuclear war in my brain, and I have a slight fight or flight reaction every time I hear it.

I'm not sure that's really what they intended.

I'm currently being exposed to the TV as I'm sitting in the VA urgent care waiting room while koyote gets a bite of some sort surrounded by a bull's eye rash obtained while up in the mountains checked out. I'm attempting to study, but America's Funniest Home Videos is a little too distracting, and not in a particularly pleasant manner.

I have to say, they've fixed this place up since the last time I was here.

Hope the bite turns out to be nothing!!!

Hubby had a patient with the bulls eye rash - her doc told her it was nothing - but hubby was proved right, lime disease from a tic bite.

They think it is probably a spider bite, but they're testing and doing antibiotics anyways.

Glad to hear it. "Bite" plus "bullseye rash" plus "mountains" is a worrisome combination. Lyme disease is unpleasant, debilitating, and hard to get rid of.

Hope all turns out well with koyote bite mark.

Hope all turns out well for your ATT earworm bite. I don't think they have drugs to help jingle infections.
