Hi all:

A friend emailed me a link to this and I just about fell out of my chair. It takes a while to download and you have to be patient but stick with it until the end and you will not be sorry:

Carlton Draught Ad

Now there's an ad that makes me remember the product being promoted! :laugh:

Yep, that's got instant classic written all over it.

What an ad to see before I even have coffee today. I might not make it to work now.

That's on par with the Batman Snickers commercial.

I always attempt to have the ratio of my intelligence to weight ratio be greater than one. But, I am from the midwest. I am sure you can now understand my life's conundrum.

I just wish until see it. I have not yet tried turning off Windows XP firewall but the "security pop-up window" never appears for me even when I disable my pop-up blocker. And then I can't even close the Carlton ad browser window until I hit "end task" a half dozen times in Task Manager.

I like the Green Stripe beer ad I saw painted on the side of a liquor store in Belize so succint: "Drinking is Fun!"

What browser are you using? It appears to be Java based, so you might want to make sure you have the latest Java stuff installed.
