PUR Water Commercial: Adding Comedy to Water Filtration
Last night, while watching tv, I landed on a commercial that immediately caught my eye due to its simplicity — “Exclamations” by PUR Water. What an excellent commercial!
Geico’s Hilarious ‘Sarge’ Commercial Featuring R. Lee Ermey
Just when I thought the Geico commercials were tapering off, we have been hit with yet another ingenious work of comedic art. I have critiqued a few of their commercials, which I adore, though I think this one takes the cake.
SEO Rant: News Companies Failing Due to SEO Mishaps
While researching topics online over the years, I have found that a vast majority of news websites are clearly lacking in the SEO department (if one even exists). I’m talking about large media companies that bring in billions of dollars per year and employ 10,000+ employees, but they’re simply dropping the ball.

American Express Television Commercial – Smiley Faces
Lately, I have been seeing the American Express ‘Smiley Faces’ commercial all over the place and, to be honest, I truly love it.
