Prevailing Wind December 21, 2020 Share December 21, 2020 Maybe Joey stowed away on the UPS or FedEx truck and jumped off later. Maybe someone dognapped Joey and let him out later. Maybe the family was on vacation and Joey escaped and after searching for him, the people were at home, resting from their exhaustive search. It really doesn't matter. Joey was found by a nice guy & returned to his family. In a Beemer. By a guy who didn't care if he got doggo hair in his expensive car. YAYYYYY 11 Link to comment
Hyacinth B December 22, 2020 Share December 22, 2020 CNN showed a stunning commercial earlier this evening for Omega Co-Axial watch movements that just blew me away. Turns out the ad was first released in 2013 but I don't remember seeing it before. This is definitely one of those "turn UP the volume" ads. Not only does it have great visuals, but the music is gorgeous. It's listed as "Smiling" by Harry Gregson-Williams from a 2004 Denzel Washington action film "Man On Fire" but it doesn't sound like any action film score I've ever heard. It reminded me very much of the "Shire" themes from Howard Shore's Lord Of The Rings score. This one is well worth a minute of your time. https://www.ispot.tv/ad/7ocC/omega-co-axial 1 7 Link to comment

At some point, we have to find humor in this tragic shitshow of a year. Ryan Reynolds has done it. The toilet paper theft scene and use of a Taylor Swift song are genius. I forgive that it's a commercial for Match. In the other one, I think 2020's confident reference to "the poem The Road Less Traveled, by Shakespeare" is a scathing social commentary. I will leave it at that. Edited December 28, 2020 by Ashforth 1 10 Link to comment
friendperidot December 28, 2020 Share December 28, 2020 I don't know that it's a favorite, but it's not bad as far as the begging for money for a good cause goes. It's for Smile Train, an organization that provides surgery and other needed services in 3rd world countries to children born with cleft pallets. One little boy melts my heart when he says, "I can't wait to be handsome." Oh, sweetie, all children should feel handsome and beautiful. 11 Link to comment

I used to think Melissa Joan Hart was pretty sexy, but once read that she has recurring BO. Not sure I would be able to get past that.🙁 Some actresses just look like they smell good. For some reason I always imagine that Anne Hathaway smells like Vanilla.🥰 Edited December 29, 2020 by Winston Wolfe 1 6 2 Link to comment

The best is the Mom's face at the end - she's so nerdy and hilarious. 5 8 Link to comment
