Have we all become germaphobes?

Somebody please explain this to me: I just saw a commercial for an automatic hand soap dispenser.  They’re selling it based on the idea that there’s all kinds of germs and bacteria on the top of the pump that’s part of your standard manually-operated hand-soap dispenser.  These germs and bacteria then get transferred to your hand when you press down on the pump to get your soap.

But don’t you then wash both your hands with the ANTI-BACTERIAL soap once you’ve got it?

I have motivation issues

So, I haven’t been updating the Hold Your Shoe blog lately for two reasons.

First, I’m nearing the end of my school career and I’m busy assembling my portfolio.  That takes quite a bit of time.

Second, I have less motivation to type up a blog than I used to.  The upside of this is that I’m seriously considering starting my own audio podcast.

So, to all my geographically local buddies, let me know if you’re interested in being heard by podcast listeners and I’ll let you know if I’m going forward with this plan.
