Brilliant TV show / commercial: The Chopper Show

During what was otherwise a somewhat lackluster trip to Vegas, I did discover something brilliant: The Chopper Show, which is Towbin Dodge's genius variation of the usually boring local car dealership ads. I seriously watched almost as much of this as I did coverage of presidential debates and NH primary.

Clip below is just a taste of the 30 minute entertainment-rich blocks that I absorbed:

Funny & Opportunistic Idea: Lilly's Cafe Serving Humble Pie

Just saw a clip on ESPN's Sunday NFL Countdown about a woman who has starting offering 'Humble Pie' at her bakery, inspired by the New England Patriots catchphrase of the season.

Smart, inspired entrepreneurial idea. Hope she does good business through the rest of the season. And 'Go Pats'.
