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!

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.
