Contextual Advertising at it’s best…
My wife was checking her e-mail earlier, and was reading an e-mail from a friend concerning an upcoming wedding for her cousin who will be getting married next summer. This ad was on the sidebar of her Gmail account:
Honor this Special Time
Puberty can be a tough time for
parents too. Chinaberry can help

This struck me as somewhat funny, since it seemed to be accusing the Bride and Groom of only just hitting puberty themselves…
The wording struck me as a little strange as well. since in my Dutch background, puberty was something that either was not talked about, or was teased mercilessly; hardly, an ‘honored time’. I guess it may apply to Jewish or other backgrounds where puberty *is* an honored time. Either way, doesn’t really fit with the whole wedding thing in general.
