Attention Advertisers

I know that this is the Christmas season and every retail chain is advertising on television. However, I have to address this because it is DRIVING ME NUTS.

Diamond retailers have no business advertising during the same commercial break as the movie trailer for Blood Diamond. I see that ad and I can't even think about buying diamonds.

If you do not know what a blood diamond or conflict diamond is click HERE.

As cheesy as jewelery commercials are; they're also a bit romantic and I get all warm and fuzzy inside and two seconds later I am thinking of people being exploited for the sake of war and financial gain. It may not be the best strategy you can use for selling your wares. I'm just saying.
