Winnipeg Free Press (Newspaper) - August 26, 2006, Winnipeg, Manitoba A2 free press saturday August 26, 2006 the rest of us t Here should be a Law Banning stores from displaying Back to school advertising prior to aug. 25. Those breaking the Law should be punished severely. I a not suggesting Public beheading. Instead criminals should be forced to write i wont ruin the rest of summer for everyone else 1,000 times on rented chalkboards located at local malls. Shoppers buying cheap thongs and sunscreen could taunt the criminals by asking if they wanted fresh mor Den Corn or a ride to grand Beach. The fault of spoiling summer Bliss does to belong solely to store Advertis ers. They re merely capitalizing on the addictions of others. I blame parents who insist upon being organized. Their school supplies Are purchased labelled and snuggled within freshly bought Knapsacks by july 21. On Field trips these parents Are always prepared. They shame the boy scouts. If you need a tissue they have three. Want a spare umbrella no problem. Chainsaw give them a minute to slip Back Home. Its on the right hand Side of the third shelf Between the Generator and the spare spare tires. These parents spoil our warm Lazy Days by reminding us of mornings Well spend searching for school permission forms. Despite this some of you May be jealous of them. Don to be. They have a disease organization itis. And there a no cure. Of i be tried to help friends with this affliction. I be ruffled through their pantries making Subtle changes. You would to believe How fast those with organization itis sweat when they notice the sugar and Oil have been switched. I once removed All of the labels from a friends cans. Para medics were called in. On the Stretcher my Friend kept twitching and repeating which ones the Beans which ones the Beans self help meetings also fail. Once members repeat the obligatory statement i i a Mary and have organization tis others in the group Welcome her give her a Basket of Clear plastic bins a Labeller and 12 freshly baked macadamia nut cookies with just a hint of Madagascar cinnamon. Within five minutes members decide their next meeting will have a mexican theme. Mary is assigned the Job of making the mar Garita shaped Pinata. She a excited. She has one in the car. Many of you May be complacent about these sick individuals. This is a mistake. Remember they Are the reason we have Back to school ads in july Holiday music in october and easter posters in january. They Are the reason we need Back to school advertising prevention Laws. Without these Laws How can the rest of us remain Happy where would excitement be if we did to have a daily struggle to unearth a Matching pair of shoes on the Way out the door spontaneity would die if culinary skills weren to tested by being forced to create something edible from a can of Corn Ketchup and half a pack of Frozen spinach. But nothing provides a greater Rush than racing other parents carts through a store to finish a Supply list at 9 55 . The night before the first Day of school. I once leapt across three aisles to snatch the last pack of 24 crayons from a six foot four father. I could hear him explain to his child sorry Ryan i had to buy three packs of eight. But you really need the Colour Teal Ryan Shook his head in disgust. I whispered if you notice a petition Banning Back to school Advertis ing sign it. Future summer enjoyment is up to you. Left unchecked those with organization itis will dismantle societal order. One Day our Gran kids wont give their teachers an Apple the first Day of school they la bring festively wrapped Christmas Fruitcake.
