Did you know that tomatoes are an aphrodisiac? Well they are and Aldi Supermarkets in Australia used that fact for their advantage with this new commercial. They reworked the lyrics of Boyz II Men’s I’ll Make Love to You and had a man do stuff to the vegetable/fruit that is, well, just watch and you will understand why I can’t talk about it.

Back in the ’90s, Crystal Pepsi was thing for like a minute and for some reason Pepsi has decided to bring it back? I’ve never heard anyone say, “I would die for a Crystal Pepsi.” Have you? Plus, if I remember it was like disgusting.
So if you like the see-thru cola, go to PepsiPass.com to enter for a chance to win one of the 13,000 6-packs by the December 11th.
What’s next? McDLTs? Gigabits? Jolt Cola? Jell-O 123?
While most airlines only have videos about how not to die in plane crash, JetBlue has videos on how to get killed on a plane. Their flight safety videos are all about etiquette because let’s be honest, we’ve all had a horrible experience flying at some point. Like that neighbor who won’t shut up (which is me) or the person who eats smelly food and none of that compares to trying to board. Why is that so difficult? Well now we know how to avoid all of that or maybe not?
Either way, it reminds me why I only fly JetBlue. Well that, and they are the only nonstop from Burbank to NYC! And their free yummy snacks.

September 21st is Peace One Day and Burger King wants to make peace with McDonald’s for the day with the McWhopper. The bottom half will be the Whopper, the top is the Big Mac and I am drooing already. So McDonald’s accept this proposal because I must have this.
Granted, I could just go to McDonald’s and Burger King, buy a Big Mac and a Whopper and make one myself. But it won’t be the same or will it? I will let you know later today.
UPDATE: McDonald’s responded to Burger King and there is reason why their sales are declining. They suck and don’t get what a brilliant idea BK had with their appeal. If they did, they would’ve understood that this would’ve been great publicity for both fast food joints.
Dear Burger King,
Inspiration for a good cause… great idea.
We love the intention but think our two brands could do something bigger to make a difference.
We commit to raise awareness worldwide, perhaps you’ll join us in a meaningful global effort?
And every day, let’s acknowledge that between us there is simply a friendly business competition and certainly not the unequaled circumstances of the real pain and suffering of war.
We’ll be in touch.
-Steve, McDonald’s CEO
P.S. A simple phone call will do next time.
Penn & Teller have taken their act to Broadway for a few weeks. The magicians really want you to see their show, so much so that they took out a billboard that reads, “They’ll blow you”.
That is enough to get me to go. After all, we know that they can make magic happen!
