Alice: As breakfast is the most important meal, I put a lot of thought into choosing my cereal. Alice: When scamming the cereal aisle, I'm careful to avoid earth tones, subdued fonts, or any hint of restraint in packing design. Alice: These are warning signs of a boring cereal. I look for radioactive colors, eye watering fonts and obsessive animal mascots. Alice: An obsessive animal mascot-rabbit, bumblebee, bear, monkey, squid, etc- is a key indicator of a good cereal. Alice: Even better is an obsessive imaginary creature, say a fanatical leprechaun or a rabid unicorn. Dad: Hey, Alice, did you know hot dogs are merely a vehicle for the condiments? Alice: Daddy! I'm still discussing cereal!
Corporations run the government – just look at Common Core.
