I watched an interesting commercial for Silk soy milk yesterday. In the commercial, a woman spies on the hot new employee and then in her mind she plans the rest of their lives together, from their first date to their marriage. All while sipping on a smoothie that she made from Silk soy milk. The interesting part is, that the woman looks exactly like my friend Vicki. I told Linda and Andrea about the commercial and they had already seen it and made the connection long ago. I tried to research the actress name on the internet, but I haven't had any luck. I'm pretty sure it's Vicki. She always said she wanted to be an actor.

I also like that commercial for Starbucks frappachino, where the doo-wap singers prevent a woman's coworkers from distracting her, while she drinks her frappachino in peace. And that commercial where the band follows a guy around, singing a modified version of "Eye of the Tiger." That was cool. I could have used that today.

I was gone for two days and Corporate almost screws our deal. Paul called me at around 10pm and asked me to come in. It seems that Corporate somehow restructured the contract and loosened the specifications. When the customer saw that, they blew their tops and threatened to pull the remaining accounts. So they called me in to save the day. I love playing hero. I fixed the contract and apologized to the customer and informed them that the issue was resolved and the people that were responsible for the confusion were fired.

5. (2001) "You're gonna stand there, owning a fireworks stand, and tell me you don't have no whistling bungholes, no spleen splitters, whisker biscuits, honkey lighters, hoosker doos, hoosker don'ts, cherry bombs, nipsy daisers, with or without the scooter stick, or one single whistling kitty chaser?"
Joe Dirt played by David Spade in Joe Dirt



More movie trivia from Andrea. Name the title of the movie for the following quotes:

1. (2003) "I've been to prison once. I've been married twice. I was once drafted by Lyndon Johnson and had to live in shitass Mexico for two and a half years for no reason. I've had my eye socket punched in, a kidney taken out and I got a bone chip in my ankle that's never gonna heal. I've seen some pretty shitty situations in my life, but nothing has ever sucked more ass than this!"

2. (2003) "Can you keep a secret? I'm trying to organize a prison break. We have to first get out of this bar, then the hotel, then the city, and then the country. Are you in or you out?"

3. (2003) "I'd like to dip you in Cheez Wiz and spread you all over a Ritz cracker, if I'm not being too subtle."

4. (2003) "She is dead! Worse than dead! She will spend the next year in a phoneless, dateless, Amish existence!"

5. (2004) "Let's not find ourselves shackled by the bonds of employer/employee relations. Unless, of course, you're into that sort of thing. In which case I have some shackles in the back. Just kidding. But, no, really, I do."
