Wednesdays rock!

Posted in Addictions, Life @ The Grand, Simon Wesley, TV0 Comment(s)

Jason and I started dating on a Wednesday (May 26, 2004).
Jason proposed to me on a Wednesday (January 26, 2005).
Simon was born on a Wednesday (January 30, 2008).
Last, least, and not at all in the same category, but still pretty good: Project Runway airs on Wednesdays. Season 5 starts tonight. I’m excited.

The World Is Just Awesome

As if we didn’t love the Discovery Channel enough already, this is our new favorite commercial.

Last May, when we were out in Scottsbluff, Jason and I were driving back to the hotel at night, and we saw a lightning storm on the horizon. As we watched the show, we promised each other that when we had kids, we would always take the time to try to instill a sense of wonder in them. The commercial reminds me of that, and it makes me a little teary every time I watch it.

Bravia for Egypt

Perhaps I should just add a category for Bravia’s advertisements--I am taken with each new one I see. This one for the Egyptian market is, to my mind, second only to (what else?) the bouncy balls.

You can see a (better quality) Quicktime version here.

Bravia Bunnies

Bravia has a new commercial, and it’s pretty cool. I mean, who can argue with Play-doh bunnies?

Still, let’s face it, nothing beats the bouncy balls.
