Best Budlight Commercial Ever - Beer & Porn (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2HWEXUzzmDY#lq-lq2-hq-vhq)

No way that's a real Bud Light commercial! Where they hell did they show that one?
Reading just the topic, my first thought was "What I've given up since I got married." [laugh]
Great video!
LMAO!!!
I'm obviously not the target demographic, as it makes me even less likely to buy Bud Light, but it's pretty hilarious. But I have to imagine Bud execs think it DOES sell beer to somebody -- there is an entire new genre of ads that seem to be on the theme that a company's customer is not too bright, kinda creepy, and has REALLY bad (but funny) things happen to him. Think of the Burger King ads (http://business.theatlantic.com/2009/06/burger_kings_horrible_creepy_ad_campaign_isnt_working.php (http://business.theatlantic.com/2009/06/burger_kings_horrible_creepy_ad_campaign_isnt_working.php)), or Del Taco's creepy latent serial killer customer giving an employee a wedgie (http://adblog.msnbc.msn.com/archive/2009/02/09/1782644.aspx (http://adblog.msnbc.msn.com/archive/2009/02/09/1782644.aspx)), Boost Mobile selling phone plans with armpit hair (http://adblog.msnbc.msn.com/archive/2009/02/23/1805665.aspx (http://adblog.msnbc.msn.com/archive/2009/02/23/1805665.aspx), or Arby's "Hey, I bet pudgy super-freaks would buy our new chicken sandwich if we made it OBVIOUS that our cowboy hat logo can also look like a pudgy super-freak erection!" (http://adblog.msnbc.msn.com/archive/2008/12/15/1704994.aspx (http://adblog.msnbc.msn.com/archive/2008/12/15/1704994.aspx)).
My work tends to have a lot of overlap into advertising, so I try to keep up with it -- and the one thing I think I've learned is that I'm pretty ill-suited to try to sell things to GenX'ers & Millennials
OMG, thats funny.
speaking of beer
Best investment strategy in this economy
If I had purchased $1000 of shares in Delta Airlines one year ago, I
would have $49.00 today.
If I had purchased $1000 of shares in AIG one year ago, I would have
$33.00 today.
If I had purchased $1000 of shares in Lehman Brothers one year ago, I
would have $0.00 today.
But, if I had purchased $1000 worth of beer one year ago, drank all the
beer, then turned in the aluminum cans for recycling refund, I would
have received $214.00.
Based on the above, the best current investment plan is to drink
heavily & then recycle. It's called the 401-Keg plan.

when I turned 18 (I was the oldest of all my friends) they made me go into a store like that and buy porn and cigarettes.. (you know you live in a jacked up place, when a fake ID will buy you beer, but they swipe the SOB to buy porn)

If you had bought $1000 worth of Intel (INTC) in 1995, you'd have enough to buy a few 1098s now.
Many people thought Intel would go under after the i486 FDIV bug was discovered. It was a huge stock drop, it went from something like 30 to $8 a share. The Dow was trading at around 5000. I convinced my parents to buy a good chunk of it. Since 1995, Intel has split 4 times and currently trades at about 800% of that original value. At its height, it was trading around 3000%. Suffice to say, my parents were very pleased to sell off the stock when they did.
Even if it was held until now -- Today -- that $1000 would still be worth about 200 grand.
very nice profit.
The stickler is finding which of the millions to buy that will pan out.
Glad it worked out for (CIF) friends.
You have to find established companies, wait until things go south, then buy up a few.
Plenty of folks made out like bandits when Citibank went down to 97 cents recently. They are currently at $3/sh but were up to almost 6 recently.
If you had put 1000 into Intel, Motorola, and Exxon in 1995, you'd be almost a millionaire TODAY.
Citibank at $3 a share? They charge you $2 just to use their ATM if you don't have a Citibank card, they are world wide.. $$$$$
