Nice 'Tache...haha

"I just like to take a big brand, put it my back, give them a little piggy back ride for a while...see how good they can be."

The guy is a stud...

Lovin Steve Nash

I already think Nash is a great player (even though he is Canadian) but these commercials elevate him to a whole new level...





Still trying to find a good link for his commercial with the banana at VW HQ...stay tuned.

Sonic Commercials...better than some TV shows (Chuck)

Here are some of my favorite Sonic commercials:





I have never actually seen the mustache spot on television but it's hillarious...of course "tot rejection" makes the cut..."don't you bring that weak tot action!"

Searching for these enjoyable "shorts" led me to find a plethora of homemade Sonic commercials which prove that the ad agency behind our favorite Sonic friends are absolutely genius. Not only do people turn up the volume when they come on, they go out there and re-market the chain for free...brilliant.

Here is a funny response from the Sonic guys...stay tuned for a homemade spot:

Project Look-a-Like

One of the perks of my job is the ability to see a majority of the corporate workforce on a daily basis...this not only allows great networking but the means to pursue my pet project...Project Look-a-Like.

While I won't post any pictures of my co-workers, so far I have found mirror images of Gary Busey, Devin Sawa, Edna Mode (from the Incredibles) and the brown haired guy from Reno 911. Recently I came across my first celebrity/celebrity look-a-like...see for yourself:

Robert Pattinson v. CT from the Real World












Lastly, Katie always gets told she looks like Uma Thurman...you be the judge:












Do you know anyone that looks like a celebrity? Let's see what kind of list we can come up with...leave a comment.

Too little too late

While I wasn't able to watch the Man U v. Liverpool match today here are some of my takeaways...
  1. While Vidic is probably the best center back in the world, he can't compose himself against the Reds...there is no excuse for two red cards in two games against Gerrard and company
  2. I'm excited the race for the title has tightened...if they aren't going to go undefeated I want it to go down to the last game or two of the season
  3. Nevertheless, Man U will still take the title...sorry Liverpool fans
Here is a video that captures my thoughts...techno version of course (would you expect anything else from me?)

Hobotron deserves a melee

Instead of going out clubbing or drinking like most 20-somethings do on Friday nights, me and 11 other friends/colleagues went laser tagging. This was only my second time and I had something to prove. Let's just cut to the chase...laser tag is not my game. Dominating our opponents in aggressiveness and stature we managed to underachieve like J-Will, getting owned by the guns of twelve year old psychos and 30 year old virgins. Below is a picture of one of my score cards. What stands out is my score....5890. To put this in context, it placed first on my team...to put that in context it was almost 14,000 points lower than Hobotron (look down at the Green team).














Just try to imagine what Hobotron looks like...if you guessed a 6'2'' douche bag with acne you would be correct. Is it that obvious I am bitter? I think I am too competitive for games I'm not good at.

New motivation


From what I have read in countless articles, one of the most important and most overlooked steps to achieving your desired fitness goals is self visualization. While this must occur while you are lifting weights, it also helps to have a desired "finish" in mind. Here is my finish line...

Nike's " Show Your Five"

"Rusty Cunt Bucket!" - Ari Gold

These are my favorite television characters of all time...what are yours?

"Good stuff Bobby, nice moves, that was hot"

One of my favorite scenes from Grandma's Boy...
"New high score...what does that mean? Is that bad? Did I break it?"

Kraak & Smaak - Squeeze Me




It's nice to see an original and creative music video...
