Ad bogosity.
Some of you may be aware of Toyota's strange new marketing campaign for the Matrix, having discovered it by clicking on fake banner ads for a Pub-Fighting School or Animal Lingerie.

I don't know what it says about the state of the nation that I was actually moderately surprised to find that Mr. Racoon's Pet Daycare wasn't a real business.
Tam, I'm surprised you clicked onit to see where it went.

I really appreciate your blog, and I'm sorry if my request is inappropriate.
Gunsite is fine. I'm pretty lukewarm on some others, though.
What quadrant of the country are you in?
All this and Toyota makes a good car too!
The scary thing is it jives well with some pet food commercials.

Ahhh...Teflon Toyota...
Awesome target!!! Thanks Tam!!
I can think of only one word to describe this: Amazing.
Southern California, Tam. 60 miles east of Los Angeles and 80 miles north of San Diego.
I'm sorry - your post in question was regarding Front Sight, not Gunsite.
Yeah, and our trucks aren't bad either.
