This morning as I was doing my thing, I heard a nine-year-old boy in the waiting room, playing with his rubber lizard and engaged in a bit of rhetorical analysis.
"I think I should start my own insurance company so this can be my mascot," he told his mother. He recited the entire Geico gecko commercial about trusting the gecko for lower car insurance rates rather than some guy you know. He thought about it. "But it doesn't make sense to believe a gecko if you know and trust the guy."
There's nothing like an ethical appeal, even among lizards and their boys.
