The most adorable Secretary of Defense, ever.

I know I’m more than a few days late on this one, but I thought I’d commemorate his resignation with some of the lighter moments from his reign time as Secretary of Defense.

That’s kinda gay.

Nothing better than a solid awkward silence during a live TV broadcast. I realize no one will believe me when I say this, but I was actually watching this game when this happened. ESPN, you so funny homophobic.

Again gracias to Harrison.

…passes it to the man, shoots it, and boom goes the dynamite.

Here’s an oldie but a goodie. Classic clip of a kid absolutely biting it on his (I’m assuming) first attempt at a sportscast. I know I mentioned Ricky Gervais a couple posts ago, but seriously this has to be the most painfully awkward thing I’ve ever seen.

Hidden gem alert! Be sure to watch for the mouthed “I’m so sorry” during the tennis bit. Priceless.

Special thanks to Harrison for bringing this gem out of retirement.

Ladies and gentlemen, here they are…douchebags of the year Jim DuBois and Ethan Chandler!

Ricky Gervais, eat your heart out. Best part of this clip: taking a song about a man with AIDS making a final plea to his father and turning it into a song about a corporate merger. “And we’ve got Bank One…on the run! What’s in your wallet? It’s not Capital One!” Genius.

Late breaking news!

Cripsin, Porter + Bogusky are good at advertising! I know, I know…who are they, right? Apparently they’ve been doing decent work for some time now, and here’s one of the latest installments. It’s not exactly piss-your-pants funny, but damned if it ain’t exactly right for the target. One of four funny, good ads. These are the web versions, I actually think the made-for-air versions are even better. Click here to check all four out.

Up is down.

I’m not quite sure how to reprimand myself, but somehow…some way, I have managed to like a campaign done by JWT. By no means Cannes material, these ads aren’t earth-shattering. But surprisingly, they don’t suck. Wow, I just said some JWT ads don’t suck. I’m going to hell. Note to JWT: continue to use Reginald Pike’s (who are valiantly attempting to save one of their actors from losing his SAG card) Perlorian brothers, you may just find yourself continuing to suck less.

Commercials: Moustache (personal favorite), Nana, Mobile Pizza.

Great googly-moogly!

This is why I love advertising. You’re given a clear assignment: “Design a flag in the style of medieval jousting tournaments; such as the flags of medieval Sweden, Denmark and Liberia.” What do you do? You design a flag in the style of medieval jousting tournaments, such as the flags of medieval Sweden, Denmark and Liberia, right? Not if you’re in advertising, you don’t. Cheers, TBWA\Chiat\Day.

You’re the best! AROUND!

I don’t know why but this is absolutely hilarious.

Tickle me harder

Some of the hottest doll on doll on doll action I’ve ever seen.

I’m Barbara Streisand, bitch!

I never thought I’d utter these words, but I’d like to thank a Barbara Streisand fan. Apparently during her concert the other night in Madison Square Garden, Babs decided that people hadn’t put a lien on their house to get tickets to hear her sing, but instead they had done so to watch a sub-par, not-that-funny skit mocking President George Bush. The story goes that the skit went on far too long and an anonymous fan was letting her know it. After asking him to stop once, Streisand had had enough and let a “Shut the fuck up!” fly, silencing not only the fan, but the entire audience. Barbara if you’re reading this, and I know you are, no one wants to pay $8,000 to hear your political drivel…shit, most people don’t even want to pay $8,000 to hear you sing. Stick to singing, and if you absolutely must spout your political bullshit try doing it in a circumstance where noone’s paying to hear you do it.
