The Superbowl and movie quotes
After all the creative energy to produce million dollar commercial epics, my favorite Superbowl ad of them all was a one second spot by Miller Highlife. The burly delivery guy Miller spokesman took a break from chastizing bar owners and simply barked: “Highlife!” as the logo flashed for one second.
Brilliant! Since a 30 second spot cost most advertisers a cool three million dollars, Miller saved some dough by going for the short, blasted message. At one second instead of 30, they would have had to pay only… divided by three… carry the two…
I can’t do the math. But I liked it. And now that the Steelers have just barely eked out a win in what was supposed to be a blowout, it’s time for you to sober up and name that movie quote. It’s completely irrelevant to the matter of championship football, but what do you care? You’re drunk.

Yeah…let’s see, was it on a snow day? Anyway the guy who actually did the commercial was on Today show and several talk shows. He was a heck of a jovial fellow and was just so tickled to be the one to make the world’s shortest commercial, he just laughed all the way through his interviews.

Hey everyone… I’ve been looking around this forum for a lengthy spell but I don’t normally post. In spite of this, I possess a query that I sense is best if it is answered by folks who are far more educated than I am about the internet. I am introducing my own firm and I must have a website. A good deal of the success of the company will be driven by the quality of the web site. I am taking into account two options:
1. A community web firm like this one that is local to my locale (denton web design)
One of their websites:
http://www.produceresults.net/portfolio/thumbs/rhino.jpg
or
2. A national brand like SEO.com.
The national firm is about 9 times higher in cost but they obviously realize what they are doing. The regional brand ranks highly locally and has the best designs…
I am wishing for aid in which route to go. Thank you!

I am probably going to be getting a new desk for my home office. What do you think of this awesome desk? Companion and I can not see eye to eye on desk for home office.

I believe it is a awesome looking desk but my spouse doesn’t feel so. What do you all believe? It is refurbished and a superior desk for a professional office, but my companion wishes for a new one from Walmart. What do you all guess? Here is a link to the desk: Used Office Furniture Austin
Thank you all for all of your aid!
