In Which We Follow The Advice Of A Devil-May-Care Flying Chipmunk.

 

A little humor makes a "me-too" service special. We're pretty sure we've mentioned Hipmunk before for precisely this reason – their Agony Index is not only funny; it's useful. Combine that sensibility with ads like this and one begins to think that these people (or cute animals who can book flights) might just be able to make the nightmarish hellscape that is modern air travel a little more tolerable.

The spot itself could have used more Trololo Cat and the narration is pure crap, but overall, great job.

The Hills Are All The Way Live.

So you're on the Chamber of Commerce of a town with a name that makes people think of a federal prison in another state. And you probably don't have dumptrucks full of money to drop on a tourism campaign. What do you do? What do you do!?

Well, if you're Leavenworth, Washington, you show a little spine. (Also: cleavage. But still.) Well done.

Next time we're up Seattle-way? It's on – Woody Goomsba style. Ein prosit!

Extra Bacon.

In which we fool you into thinking this is a blog post about bacon when in fact it is actually a blog post about Bacon…pretending to be a guy who is obsessed with Bacon. (And possibly also bacon.) Whoa.

 

 

That was darn tasty, Logitech. Thanks.

If This Is A Dream, Don’t Wake Us Up.

Run for the hills! Pablo is really really mad about hitting into so many double-plays! That's what this is, right? Right? No? It's just a teaser for King-Kong 360-3D? Sigh. It was a beautiful dream for a minute there.

Thanks for nothing, Adrants.
