  1. this was a cult favorite!

    he offers the Doorman a bribe of 2 dollars, and the Doorman says: "Huh?", and the puppet Dog says: "3 dollars".

    then there were the scenes where he would be driving whilest singing the lonely song,

    hey, in California, he was king...

  2. As far as I'm concerned, the more bizarre the commercial, the more I like it. Anything is more entertaining than CNBC anchors.

    Now, back to cow tipping. Great posts, Thug and TraderJim. Obviously, more research on the subject is required. We learn by doing. I propose we meet in front of the LaPorte Co. courthouse around midnight with our camcorders, head out to some farms, and tip some cows. Then we can swing by Oprah's house for some mailbox baseball and still make it to Sluggers in Chicago for some midget tossing. The following link should clear up any confusion.

  3. those were actually just tastes of short little 5 minutes movies on www.bmwfilms.com. Log onto the site and check them out.

    The one you are referring to is known as The Star.

  4. The ones about embracing the client's dream are much better if you replace "dream" with "money."

    We embraced it, and made it our own.

  8. In that iShares commercial where Henry is protecting his advisor against germs, that guy looks very familiar. Was he the actor who played Jeffrey the dentist in 1978's Body Snatchers? That actor also played the Angel Beach sheriff in Porky's. Sure looks like he would look 20 years older.

  9. (Trader, unshaven, in boxers and t-shirt being interviewed in his home during market hours)

    ....

    "Look, did you see that? I just made $13 like it was nothing"

    ....

    "Oh no! I am destroyed! ... no, wait, I'm back."
