BFO = Blinding Flash of the Obvious.

Today, I present you two of them.  The first from Fox News:

“Never buy a woman a frying pan, toaster or vacuum for the holidays. Better yet, definitely don’t buy them a membership to the gym.”

The second is from Pope Benedict cautions:

“In today’s consumer society, this time of the year unfortunately suffers from a sort of commercial ‘pollution’ that threatens to alter its real spirit,”

Clearly we are in the presence of genius on this fine Monday morning.

More later.
