Red

If you were to ask me my favorite color when I was in high school I would have told you blue. It probably had a lot to do with the fact that I was nicknamed Blu my freshman year by a dear friend. The nickname stuck, and while I really love blue to be 100% honest, my favorite color is red. This is very helpful given one of my favorite things is UGA football. Each of my apartments had at least one room done with a lot of red. When I purchased my first home, I knew it was going to be the kitchen. I wanted a house with dark cherry wood, but it seemed like every house that we went back to didn’t have this wood. My house doesn’t have dark cherry wood, but it does have awesome wood and the red REALLY sets it off. So, you can imagine my surprise and disgust while eating lunch and reading my Sports Illustrated (that’s right, all the sports magazines come to me in my house) that I see an ad for Newport cigarettes. I took a picture and sent it via text to several friends. I mean how on earth is this a good ad?!?! Not only should the word pleasure and cigarettes never go together, but why oh why would they do this to my favorite color. Evil I tell you, evil!
