Have a Blessed Easter

I’ll be a little busy over the next couple days:

As you hear the story–he is not here, he is risen–may you again hear the promise of the resurrection of Jesus Christ.

Happy Easter!

Frank Thomas too aggressive

From The Detroit News Online

The Television Bureau of Canada forced the Blue Jays to modify a commercial with slugger Frank Thomas , showing him knocking down a small boy in a pillow fight. The child clearly was unhurt, but critics thought the image of the much larger Thomas knocking down the boy was too aggressive. CBC is running the original 30-second commercial.

Here’s the commercial from YouTube

When I first read about this I immediately went to YouTube to find the video.  My reaction is that the Television Bureau overreacted.   It was a pillow for crying out loud and there is obviously a smile on Frank Thomas’ face and the kid is unhurt.  I thought it was cute.
