I watch ICYMI and Pulse while I work. CNN often plays commercials that look like reporting, with an attractive young woman encouraging seniors to sign up for a program. There's often a Breaking News banner and clips of ecstatic seniors who are so thankful for the free money from the government.

It's deceptive. It's not free money from the government. It's a commercial.

Running these commercials reflects badly on CNN, it takes advantage of seniors, and the content communicates that they think seniors are chumps.

I know it's revenue, but it's inappropriate. Please stop.

Months ago, my husband bought a sweater from Banana Republic. It's really pretty. When he got home, he noticed that the cashier had not removed the security tag. The next day, he left for a long business trip. Months later, he returned home and wants to go to the Banana Republic store in the Great Mall in Milpitas, California and ask them to remove the security tag. He no longer has the store receipt, but he does have his credit card receipt. Is it possible? What are our options?

A few minutes ago, he was trying to use a knife to remove the security device from the sweater, and the kids and I started screaming that he needed to stop if he didn't want dye all over everything. What would happen if he tried to remove the tag with a knife and elbow grease?
