JANINE WROTE: Does anyone else find the tv commercials for Mohegan Sun depressing? You know, the one that uses the music from “My Sharona” with dorky words about how the middle-aged fortysomethings in the commercial are going to bust out for the weekend, going nuts by going to Mohegan sun and gambling! Going to a chain restaurant! Staying up all night! Dancing around looking generally very white, frumpy and uncool…yes, the original punk/new wave generation is now in its forties, and the once ruling paragons of cooldom now are relegated to weekend outings to a casino with the sitter at home…*sigh*

omg yes! Also, there’s some car commercial that plays a peppier version of a New Order song. I nearly choked on my dinner the first time I heard it!
