PH663 Week 1, The Last 50 Years

Wow! Times have definitely changed. I've been out of school since 2000. I guess I better get used to using the computer more often, other than to check my personal email.
Week 1:
It was interesting to see how the focus on certain health issues has changed over the last 50 years and the different advertising tactics that were used in an attempt to influence us into adding or removing certain behaviors from our lives. I'm not too sure how much any of those advertisements influenced my own behavior, but some defintely caught my attention more than others. (Remember...the graphic quit smoking campaigns from a few years back???)

hello Cecilia, Good job for taking the first step toward grad school. It's funny that I got this email today, cause just yesterday I took the first step and went out running, my attempt to get back to shape. I ran 2min and walked 2min for a duration of 20min. This was no joke, I was out of shape and moving like a hermit. I can see you face right now as you laugh at me. Anyways, keep up the good work and I will be coming back to you wonderful blog again.

Hi CC, Glad to hear you are continuing on! I'm looking forward to whatever tidbits you can post. With cutting edge technology, you can help us old school guys be aware of the new and improved. Your dad always speaks so highly of you, so consider me on the same "Fan-Wagon" and keep up the good work!
