What ads go well with war?
In the event of a war and its resulting nonstop coverage on channels 2 - 60, what will be shown for commercials? Have the advertisers already pulled them? What is an appropriate ad? Most ads today use humor as their selling point. Will that be deemed inappropriate? What do you think?

Well, I heard Pepsi will be going dark once the war starts.
Given the fact the news coverage will be wall-to-wall, I wonder just how many ads we'll actually see anyway?

I just wonder if/when we get a "This war was caused by people who buy marijuana" type of deal.

(If I see one more of those commercials I'm throwing something through the TV)

I'm waiting for the next:
Hello, I support terrorists because I drive an SUV and now because I only get 10 miles per gallon I am the reason you pay $2.00 a gallon at the pump. I give more money to Saddam just because I dont drive a car that runs on water.
