Ok, i'm in the ad biz, (I've spent 16 years actually working in it, and the last 4 years supplying tech to the ad agency biz), so I watch commercials like most people watch programming. In fact (and this is really a sick fact), my wife and I "tivo" most of our prime time TV watching. She watches the programming. I fast forward the programming to see who is advertising and who has new spots.

Here's the latest funniest spot - a Burger King commercial, set to the tune of "I am Woman" with guys talking about being men and how much they like Whoppers - at the end they even toss a minivan off a bridge! Rock! :ylsuper:

Great stuff. The agency is Crispin, Porter + Boguski in Miami.

The spot is called Manthem:

How is working in the the ad business? Is it fun? I'm an advertising major in college right now and haven't got to talk to anyone who actually has a career in it.
