This is wild

You may have read the post below about Steve Martin. Pretty bland. Nothing terribly provocative.

So tonight we get a phone call from the Dove Foundation. Of course we don’t answer it, since it screams “solicitor.” But I’m curious, so I Google them. From their site:

THE DOVE FOUNDATION is a non-profit organization established to encourage and promote the creation, production and distribution of wholesome family entertainment. The Foundation, free from commercial pressures, awards a blue and white Dove Seal to any movie or video that is rated “family-friendly” by its film review board.

Ah. OK. But why us? Why now? Well, check out the list of Dove-approved films on the site. There, right in the top 10, is Cheaper by the Dozen 2. I guess it could be a coincidence that I mentioned that film on this blog late last night and then receive a call from this foundation today. Just to be safe, I e-mailed the foundation to get my name off their call list. You can do the same.
