And speaking of flying...

Every once in a while I get a little head over heels in love with a commercial--my husband says I'm like a moth to a flame whenever I'm in this phase and my beloved comes on. It hasn't happened in a while though; the last time was the Feist commercial for the ipod nano (1...2...3...4...), but how could you not love that one?

Anyway, it's happened again, and I think I love this one the most, and I can not for the life of me fathom why. I'm not a gambler or even much of a lottery ticket buyer (except when you're in town Milo!). Maybe it's the joy on these guys faces as they do something so totally selfless and brilliant. Or maybe I'm just crazy/hormonal/braindead from my children. But do watch it--it only airs in Washington and I'd hate for my long-distance readers to miss out on my one true (commercial) love.

Awww no I totally love it! What a clever commercial, and how are those animals so calm?!

Hi Diana-
Oh good! I'm going to trust your judgement then. Maybe I'm not crazy. The birdies are pretty sweet huh?

Love it - any commercial that involves chickens in safety harnesses is bound to be a classic!

Oh, and saw this blog and thought of your French plans a la 2013. Very cool. Start with the post "how we got here" in the right hand menu - it explains how the family was able to spend a year in France. http://stashaslife.blogspot.com/

Thank you! I'm in love as well. Was that an ostrich taking flight at the end? ;)

Milo-so true! And thanks for the France tip. Put your visitation weeks on the calendar now! How's the bun coming?

Sarah-so glad you're back in town. It was an emu...I guess ostriches would have been just too much, though you know I would have tried!
