Well, hello!

Y'know, I never meant for this blog to go into hibernation. I'm not making any promises, but I'll try to update here at least an little more often. I cannot guarantee "quality" or any actual "content."

Case in point: The other day me and Lopez grabbed something to eat at Wienerschnitzel and then I start obsessing about an old commercial from the 90s. I can't remember all of it, but it was part of the "Wienerdude" campaign and it ended with a mom and her daughter sitting at a table and the little girl asks, "Mommy, is Billy a wienerdude?" And the mom says, "Wellll ..." while the camera pans down and there's this like two-year-old kid sitting in a Big Wheel wearing biker leathers with this total shit-eating smirk on his face.

I always found that fucking HILARIOUS.

Oh, and then the voice-over was a weird guy voice mixed with a guitar riff going, "Wienerdoood!" Awesome.

Anyway, this isn't that commercial. As much as I'd like to share it with you, I just couldn't find it. Instead here's a commercial that's pretty funny and, since it was never used, shows how uptight we Americans tend to be — bah and humbug, I say!
