This has to be the best commercial simply for the fact that Frank Zappa was making a point be even doing this advertisement in the first place.

Advertising has come a long way in such a short while.
Even though this commercial is years old, it still shows how big business uses celebrity images to sell products.

Portland General Electric Commercial:

Oh and for those who haven’t heard of Frank Zappa, then I suggest you look into his music.
Be open minded, he paved the way for a lot of the bands that are popular nowadays.
He also stood up against the government for freedom of speech within musical lyrics.
YEAH!

Like what you see?
Then be sure to check back often, cause i’m only getting faster at posting content and connecting to my visitors.

This BLoG started out as nothing more than an outlet for my awkward creativeness. Personally, I like to present weird and alternative things to people…(that should be obvious by now)

Warning:
I’m not here to hold your hand and paint a pretty picture of the world. If you encounter anything that might upset you…STOP! Take a deep breath and realize that the world is not all pink and fluffy! I am certainly not here to purposely hurt anyone’s sensitive feelings… I am also not here to sugar-coat anything. 

oh…you’re still here? Sweet!

Boys on Wheels

Enter stage left: Boys on Wheels

Jesper Odelberg‘s career as a comedian has been going strong for more than 15 years and what sets him apart from most comedians is the fact that he makes fun of his own medical condition, Cerebral Palsy.

I have to tip my hat at him, cause it takes major cajones to do what he is doing.

Click HERE to add him as a friend on Myspace.com

Here are a few of his music videos under the band name Boys on Wheels.

Enjoy!

Swiss Fireman Rap [Video]

These firemen are tired of answering calls to the wrong number…

The World Media Controls Us!(Whether or not you believe it, it does!)

View between the lines and apply the underlying meaning to your own life and what is currently going on in the world.


From the 1976 movie Network.

Think of how we are ‘programmed’ to react to certain world events which we have no control over…

I love my neighbors to the north!

Here is an eye-opening Public Service Announcement that never aired on Canadian television:

There is a bunch of these types of PSA’s on YouTube.

I’m guessing that domestic violence is a big problem in Canada judging from the intensity of the video.
Hmmmm….
