I don’t like to drink beer, but I have to admit that some of the commercials they make are pretty funny. Take for instance the Bud Light radio commercials that are archived here. Here’s an example of the dialogue (the singer sounds like the lead to Journey):

Narrator: Bud Light presents, Real Men of Genius.
Singer: Real Men of Genius!
Narrator: Today we salute you, Mr. Giant Taco Salad Inventor.
Singer: Mr. Giant Taco Salad Inventor!
Narrator: A culinary creation that baffles the human mind. A twelve-thousand calorie salad.
Singer: Ay caramba!
Narrator: Ground beef, guacamole, refried beans, cheese, sour cream, and if there’s any room left, a few shreds of lettuce.
Female Chorus: I don’t see no lettuce!
Narrator: Some may ask, “Is your Taco Salad healthy?” Of course it is. It’s a salad, isn’t it?
Singer: You can eat that deep-fried crunchy bowl!
Narrator: So crack open an ice cold Bud Light, conquistador of the calorie. You put the feast in “fiesta”.
Singer: Mr. Giant Taco Salad Inventor!
Narrator: Bud Light beer, Anheischeur Busch, Fort Collins, Colorado.

They are a winning combination of praise and mockery that is very well produced, so get it while you can!

Don’t forget about the Pic of the Week though!
