Yeah, this isn’t in any way related to advertising, but my god is it classic - a brown finch completely pwned a local news reporter right as he was reporting on those same birds!  I mean, calculate the odds on this:  what are the odds of having a bird crap in one’s open mouth?  Pretty damned slim.  Now, of that small percentage, the odds that this person’s occupation is a tv news reporter?  Vanishingly small.  Now, of all the time this reporter spends doing the various activities of his daily life, what are the odds of this reporter eating bird shit while on the air live?!  Ridiculously fractionally small percentage.  And then the clincher!  Person, who happens to be a tv reporter, who happens to be broadcasting live, getting a dollop of bird crap in the mouth while doing a story on those same birds??!!

I mean, come on folks.  That’s just sheer awesomeness!  Ponder on such wonders of nature and probability as you enjoy your weekend!

My new favorite commercial - Bud Light now delivers the ability to understand animals.

 Bud Light just nails it, ad after ad (Swear Jar, anyone?).  Down to every detail - the dog with the slightly "proper British" accent, the facial expressions of the owner.. just awesome.

As I’ve said before, Bud Light has delivered so many great ads, I am almost compelled to buy their miserable-tasting swill just to say "Thank You"…. almost. In fact, Bud Light, I promise you this: next good commercial I see and I will buy a 24 pack of your product. I will probably then give it away to strangers and immediately purchase some good German brew.. but it’s the thought that counts, right? In fact, I’ll up the ante. While we’re on the subject of sports and marketing, I just went over to the Phoenix Suns new virtual locker room thingy. I’m digging it, but if you could convince them to get rid of the fucking ape and replace it with Sausage Dog, hell, I’ll throw a party and stock it with Bud Light kegs. Get to it, Bud Light brass!

btw, my server’s getting killed by you all right now, so my apologies if there’s a bit of delay in the load

Still swamped with work stuff, so I’m being neglectful again.  So I’m going to take the easy route and post a couple YouTube vids.  Now, I’m not into shameless self promotion (unless I’m trying to get laid by a hot chick, in which case my shamelessness knows no bounds), but I posted a vid up to YouTube to share with a couple friends and it’s now at 740 views… so, maybe you’ll find it amusing.

So, I’m cruising through "Most Viewed" the other day and stumble upon this Japanese chick.  All she does is flirt with the goddamn camera for 40 seconds.  Forty seconds of staring at a fucking camera, and she gets half a million hits!  Anyway, I decided to take a piss.  So, enjoy "Japanese attention whore", followed by my dramatic recreation of said attention whore.  Have a good weekend.

Sorry, kids.  Holidays combined with work load at the day job has made me a negligent daddy here as of late.  I’m still a bit busy, but thought I’d post up a quick something to keep Blog Welfare Services from knocking on my door.  This is (I believe) a website for a Brazilian beer called Boa.  It takes a helluva a long time to load, but is kind of funny and more importantly, shows off a new tech that you might see in future ad campaigns - overlaying images on video.  Neat stuff.

Hope to post up some more love in the next few!
