Aftermath... A drink?

http://www.honoluluadvertiser.com/apps/pbcs.dll/article?AID=2008809240348

When I started to read this article, I thought at an instant that it would be an editorial. The author of this article expresses a distinct voice about how celebrities hold themselves up. The author seems to portray a very sarcastic voice to his two victims, Dr. Dre and Snoop Dogg. He is basically saying that they refer to different types of liquor in many of their songs, and now Dr. Dre is releasing a cognac called Aftermath. Perhaps the author is excited about celebrities creating their own kinds of drinks, but perhaps maybe not. In fact, the voice in this article is so sarcastic that I found it hard to decide whether he supports celebrities making their own drinks, or if he doesn't. I chose this article because I found it quite amusing. The word choices, references to Dr. Dre, Lil' Jon and Snoop Dogg. I hope you guys find it amusing as well.

Haha,this was indeed a humorous article. It's so funny how so many celebrities come out with their own clothing line, perfume, and drinks just to increase their net worth or promote their name. Good work! I thought this was a really good, entertaining article.
