Finally – Some must see TV!

I have a sneaking admiration for Steven Seagal and his Under Siege films. Former Navy SEAL and now chef kicks the backsides of a number of well organised bad guys to save us all.

Now it appears he has been stopping bad guys for 20 years as a Deputy Sheriff in Louisiana. The A&E television network in the US has picked up on this and has followed him for a new documentary series – Steven Seagal: Lawman.

Logic says it should be awful, but for some reason it appears to be must see TV for me. Time to ask friends in the States to record this for me.

Here’s a quick trailer to enjoy for now.

When good ads go bad – Part 3

Contextual advertising is the culprit again here, or perhaps just plain old coincidental bad luck. Either way, when good ads go bad, they go REALLY bad.

Contextual gone wrong

Pen Lets You Draw With Any Color You See – Geekologie.

When I was a lad, we were considered a Flash Harry if we had one of those Bic 4 colour pens.

Technology has moved on a bit and this colour picker pen scans a colour and allows you to replicate it to write with.  It looks like a really interesting concept.

Just because an ad is controversial, it doesn’t make it good

The advertising industry often likes to create a bit of controversy to generate disproportionate coverage and get people talking. However some times you see an advert that crosses the line and goes that bit too far.

This ad from Belgium is an example of one that crosses the line in my opinion. What do you think?

Offensive advert?

It’s probably an old one, but it is the first time I have seen this one. Sums my years in Yorkshire up nicely at least. Localised Yorkshire Ebay page for your perusal…
