Is this irritating anyone besides me here?

I am tired of Kate Hudson popping up over what I'm reading here in myLot. And the pop-ups that ding, ding, ding until you go to another page. Not to mention, CONGRATULATIONS, you've won a Nintendo WII!!!! I realize myLot has to generate revenue so they can pay us those great big salaries every month, but it sure is annoying. What's wrong with a nice sedate banner at the top of the page that I can just click on if I want to?
