In case you missed the excellent documentary Jesus Camp on A&E last night, you can catch it in its entirety thanks to Google video in large size or below in a small (but still watchable) window below…

Wendy had a conniption fit every five minutes while watching Jesus Camp. This film does a good job of showing what Shakespeare’s aphorism “The Devil can cite scripture for his purpose” means.

Back in October, I posted an image of a Canadian Club ad whose design evoked the early 1960’s titled Your Mom Wasn’t Your Dad’s First. The ad used photos that had been Photoshopped to have that old “Kodachrome” look and featured models dressed and made up in the style of the time and featured this text:

He went out. He got two numbers in the same night. He drank cocktails, but they were whiskey cocktails. Made with Canadian Club. Served in a rocks glass. They tasted good. They were effortless. DAMN RIGHT YOUR DAD DRANK IT.

Looks like they’re running with the theme:

A couple of thoughts:

• Why didn’t the advertising agency for Crown Royal, my rye of choice, come up with this concept?
• Lookin’ forward to the next ads, which I hope bear titles like:
  • Your Dad Knew How to Use a Slide Rule
  • Your Dad Never Told a Girl He Had a Betty Crocker “Easy-Bake” Oven as a Kid Just to Get Some Play*
  • Your Dad Never Cried After Sex

* I actually witnessed this during my DJ shift at Clark Hall Pub at Crazy Go Nuts University. I hope it was worth it, dude.

As we approach the end of the year, you’ll see more “Top X of 2007” lists including this one, 2007 Top 8 Most Dangerous Animals…
