Thank You Nike For Your Creative Brilliance

As an avid soccer fan and former professional player, I've never seen a video capture the true essence of a soccer player better. The vantage point is one of a kind and spot on. Guy Ritchie and Nike should win awards for this masterpiece. The only thing that would have made it better is if it was made around Chelsea and not Arsenal.

How Small Is Too Small?

When the commercials came out for the new MacBook Air I was excited to see how consumers would react. Because I'm bigger than the Average Joe, I tend to like bigger gadgets. For instance, I'd never buy a iPod Nano when there's a 160 gig iPod Classic that's much bigger and better. Regardless, I've noticed that everytime Apple has introduced a new gadget, they follow it up with periodic releases of the same gadget in smaller and smaller sizes. Apparently, "Mini" is not small enough. With Apples newest release of the MacBook Air, I struggled to accept that it's more important to be able to slide your laptop in a manila folder than leave it on your desk like us normal folk.

Luckily, for all the big people out there, this mini syndrome hasn't gone unnoticed. Please enjoy this MacBook Air ad parody that's entertained almost a million viewers on YouTube.
