Loving this story - and the code names!

Sidenote - is anyone else put off by the JC Penney commercial that is a rip off of the Breakfast Club? I find it so annoying.

I hate the commercial. The first time I saw it I got mad because I thought it was a remake of the original Breakfast Club. Personally, I don't think any Molly Ringwald originals would be any good without her.

LOL, YES. The first time we saw it, I looked at my husband and said "ugh, why'd they have to mess with the Breakfast Club? The kids they're targeting probably don't even know what it's a take-off from".

I know - I think the real reason I don't like it is because it makes me feel old.

Yeah...I'm with you on that one--not sure what Penney's ad people were thinking--that "anti-establishment" Breakfast Club era parents, who actually have high school aged kids, are now going to run out and buy stuff there, as opposed to Abercrombie or Hollister? My response to that: Molly Ringwald/Claire's signature eye roll.
