  • Worth the hype?

    Posted by Travis on March 3, 2008

    I stumbled across this article today on the Consumerist. It ‘confirms’ that coat hangers work as well as Monster Cables for home theater speaker cable. It makes you wonder how many products out there are purely or mostly hype and not so much quality. What do you think? What products are mostly hype?

    What Would Jesus Buy?

    Posted by Travis on November 13, 2007

    I am the first to knock “What Would Jesus…” about anything. But I was perusing The Onion this morning and I found this movie trailer which I thought was a joke. But its apparently not. The same guy that did Super Size Me has done this documentary on American consumerism, Christmas spending and debt. I cannot vouch for its theology, for its ‘safeness to watch.’ or for its content. All I have seen is this trailer and a few reviews on it that I just found elsewhere in my search to determine if it was real or not. It seems to be in line with Dave Ramsey & Crown Financial as well, but who knows at this point. It does apparently take a shot at the ‘televangelist character’ (and who hasn’t) but I do not think it is anti-Christian in any way.

    What do you think?
