Have any of you seen those ads where somebody does an "interview" of a UPMC doctor about a medical issue, and at the end they say, "the conversation continues at UPMC.com" or some such thing? Usually, they've had this attractive blonde lady during the interviews, but I saw a new one with a guy, and I'm convinced he's a cyborg. Slow, monotone voice and zero inflection. It's pretty funny.

Yeah, I've seen those. They piss me off because they're supposed to be interviews, and they don't even try to sound not scripted. At least put some effort behind it!

At least the girl did a good job. This new guy sounds like a pod person from "Invasion of the Body Snatchers."

I still chuckle at the Viagra ads-if something happens for more than four hours you should call your doctor. I am calling the media!!!! AND every old girlfriend!
