Commercial success

OK, today's INTERACTIVE MONDAY is a very simple one.

Which Super Bowl commercial(s) did you like the best? If you didn't watch the Super Bowl itself last night, you can always look them up on YouTube or go to a Yahoo site like this one.

Personally, I really enjoyed the Darth Vader Volkswagen commercial and the Audi "escape from old luxury" commercial. I also found the Kia commercial with everyone from mythological gods to aliens to ancient Mayans trying to steal it a winner.

Oh, and I totally enjoyed seeing Rosanne Barr get slammed on her butt by a giant log.

I will now turn it over to you!

Just a quick update here for 2 great links.

First, this week's Carnival of Education is up and running at Steve Spangler's Science Blog. My post about the 3 year blogiversary is up as well as many others.

Second, this week's Mr. Teacher column on education.com is titled, "Ad Nauseum." It's my proposal for education-related Superbowl commercials.

Enjoy!

Superbowl Wrapup

Greetings everyone! I'm getting an early start on Monday's post, which is the second in my

INTERACTIVE MONDAY

series. Thanks to everyone who participated last week. We all learned a lot about what our fellow teachers really enjoy teaching.

This week, the question is:

What was your favorite Superbowl commercial?

This is of course assuming that you actually watched the game (and watched the commercials), but even if you didn't, you can always watch them online.

I wasn't overly impressed with a lot of them, but I did find the Bud Light commercial with the cavemen pretty funny. "WHEEL SUCK!!" "BOTTLE OPENER SUCK!!"

And the E*Trade commercial with the talking baby buying stock and then spitting up was frankly disturbing. Though, truth be told, the one time I tried to buy stock online, I spit up afterwards.

OK, your turn! Share your thoughts!!
