(I refuse to comment on the new addy!)

I'm bad.

I meant the original post, not the ad.  I just looked at the ad on the
lupus.org site.  Pictures of six people with lupus, plus wording that's
too small to read in that image.

Now if they'd made the mistake of letting me handle the advertising,
they'd have ended up with a picture of Peter Lupus, the actor from the
original "Mission: Impossible," saying something like "Are You Enough
Of A Man To Handle A 'Woman's Disease'?"

Personally, I like those anti-smoking ads with the gothy cartoon buzzards.

Seriously, maybe they'd appreciate your impression, so write to them as
well.
I haven't seen it, but was critiquing (in my head) an advert on TV for a
cancer lottery.
The words were kind of okay, but the promo guy sounded like a furniture
salesman on uppers. <g>

For some reason when I saw this I visualized an ad campaign
to sell lupus . . . easy credit terms, no waiting . . . check out our
selection of symptoms, folks we have something for everyone . . .
maybe a TV commercial with a new cartoon figure and in the
background, Duran Duran singing "Hungry Like The Wolf."

The new magazine "for me" has a full page advertisement for lupus.

It's AWESOME!
Page 26 of the February issue.

I'm going to write the LFA and magazine to say thank you.

There's More to Lupus than you know is the new slogan.
