Man Alive!
The Old Spice Man isn’t just on a horse anymore – he’s on YouTube!
Literary Levis
Since it looks like I won’t be getting my reviewing act together this week, here’s another installment of me highlighting commercials/ad campaigns I really enjoy.

Um WOW
For those of you who don’t get here via Facebook, some exciting news: Yesterday broke the record for per day views of Melted Brain. By +29.
