today on the drive into work, there was a sign on an overpass that said,

“GERBER = BETTER COMMUTE.”

nuala and i sat there for a good 5 seconds in stunned silence.

“gerber….?” we both said.

nuala turns to look at me, “the baby food….?”

unsure of how to proceed in these new environs that i was finding myself in, i responded, “here comes the airplane!” (gestulating hand movements, difficult while driving), “open wide the hangar! …from jar to your baby’s mouth in seconds. Gerber. The better commute.”

voice of reason to my right theorized that maybe it’s a candidate for something. it being voting day after all.

i still find myself confused by this though. who would willingly associate him/herself with baby food? maybe someone who’s only ever bought generic store brands. hmmm….. or who was only fed the runny peas kind as a child and understands the importance of a good commute more than most as a consequence of all the peas running off the airplane-spoon. sad starving gerber-less gerber baby.
