Last week, I posted on The New York Times article about what strikes me as a potentially sentimental and morally heavy-handed movie,  An Arctic Tale.  (Where can I get that jazzy marketing?)  At the very least, the Times article about the movie was pretty sentimental and heavy-handed.

So, I’m in Starbucks today, and they’ve got plush polar bears and walruses (mingling peacefully together, no blood-stains around the bears’ faces) in a basket by the cash register. 

Live by your lights, but just sell me the coffee, please.   Sell me the coffee.
