Odds And Ends

As per usual, blogger Steve MacLaughlin has plenty of cool stuff to peruse. First, he has another tidy roundup concerning the technical changes in the Formula 1 racing circuit. As far as I'm concerned, any change that means someone will have a reasonable chance of knocking off a Ferrari is fine by me. Steve, who's a media guy first and foremost, also has a nice preview about the advertising we can expect to see on Super Bowl Sunday. Please note, I'm still looking for a place to watch the big game, so if anyone has any suggestions, let me know.

Finally, Steve has a nice little piece about one of my favorite writers, P.J. O'Rourke. Stop by and read it all.

I was watching the 10th Anniverary edition DVD of Reservoir Dogs this week, and I was thinking: since Quentin Tarantino plays Mr. Brown in the movie, wouldn't it be funny if he did one of those "What Can Brown Do For You?" commercials for UPS?

How about, "What Can Mr. Brown Do For You?" Even better, for as those who saw the movie can recall, Mr. Brown drove the getaway car. I'm telling you, there are laughs to be had here.

One Response to “Odds And Ends”

  1. Unfortunately, Mr Brown probably wouldn’t be able to discuss the meaning of “Like A Virgin” on network TV…

    Hmmm…or maybe…

    “…and when she uses the Post Office, it hurts, just like it did the very first time…”

    Take that USPS!
