<p>Exactly - so why not make it cool? It seems that slick TV marketing can make most anything cool. Glee has made glee-club supercool. Like I said, the Food Network has made cooking cool. Heck, even My Little Pony has become improbably cool amongst boys. {I’m still baffled as to how the last one happened.}</p>
