Dutch Nurses Say No to Sex
The Dutch Nurses’ union NU’91 wants to put the world on notice, that sexual services are not part of in-home care. Currently they are preparing a campaign called “I Draw the Line Here.” These wonderful people shouldn’t have to but apparently it happens so often that they felt it necessary to implement a campaign. This took off when a Dutch patient demanded sexual favors from his in-home caretaker, when she refused he tried to dismiss her from the job. Well folks, here in America if this were to happen we would not pass go and go straight to civil court to be sued and the plaintiff would probably win. For…
Lost Piano Player
I saw the ad above on a DVR recording of the Godfather, I thought it was one of the most heart warming spot I’ve ever seen, it was a spot for The Foundation For a Better Life. A boy gets separated from his parents and finds a piano so he proceeds to play Twinkle, Twinkle Little Star. Little did the boy know that the piano he discovered was the piano for the concert he and his parents were attending. He quickly realizes he was in front of a large audience and panics. The main performer comes up to the stage and helps him play the song he attempted but with…

Paris Hilton Objectifies Women, No
The beer spot above was banned in Brazil for objectifying women too much. Now, please keep in mind that this Devassa Beer commercial features Paris Hilton. My question to these Brazilian regulators is “What did you expect,” it features Paris Hilton. Anything and everything she does objectifies women somehow. I believe the ad agency that created this spot is McCann Erickson, Brazil. Best,A.B.
Disability Spot, Actually Using a Disabled Person
Wirestone, an ad agency from Chicago created a spot for Health & Disability Advocates where it urges employers to hire people with disabilities and look beyond the labels. The main character in the spot, Alana Wallace, is an actual wheelchair user due to getting polio as a child. The other employees in the office all demonstrate their own particular disability. For example, unable to dress properly is considered a disability. The spot gets the point across without pittying the disabled employees which I think whenever you see anything disability related on TV. Kudos to the folks at Wirestone. Best, A.B.

Surrogates: The Movie
Surrogates, is the newest Sci-fi thriller starring Bruce Willis. The movie follows two FBI agents who are investigating the murder involving the creator of the new high-tech robots. But fir the life me I cannot find out who created the print ads for the darn movie. I have tried several Google searches with no luck. The ads are of these seemingly perfect models but they are half man and half machine. It seems like a new version of the Terminator movies. Anyway, whoever knows who created the print ads and billboards i’ve been seeing all over L.A. please let me know. Best, A.B.
