Since I am outside the targeted audience for AXE, my first encounter with their advertising was last night when I found this bottle on the beach. One word: really?


Surfrider linked to the EPA's new water quality standards for beach monitoring. They would allow 1 in 28 beach goers to experience gastrointestinal illness after swimming and still call it a safe beach to swim at. The old standard was 8 in 1,000. Say what?! Here's the scoop.
