Part III
Sitting at a red light on a main traffic artery in Louisville’s working-class south end last night, two small business signs caught my eye.
One was for a neighborhood bar:Â D.T.’s
You’re joking, right? A bar? With the same name as a symptom of alcohol withdrawal?
Wow. Either somebody has a wicked sense or irony or black humor, or….ok, nevermind, I’ll go with irony.
Part IV
How about this one for a used car lot:Â Circus Auto Sales.
My first mental picture was 14 clowns piling out of a Gremlin. I had to laugh out loud.
Then I though, “who’s the king of the Circus?” Of course it’s P.T. Barnum. And we ALL know what P.T. (not D.T., mind you) said about used car buyers, right?
Is Advertising on TikTok Worth It?
For the past few years, advertisers have been asking the same question about TikTok: Is it worth it?
Given changing trends, growing competition and considerable uncertainty about the platform’s future in the United States, it was fair for brands to be cautious. But in 2026, TikTok remains one of the most influential places for people to discover products, explore interests and connect with brands.
So, is TikTok still worth the advertising investment?
