Australian Uggs (magazine ad)
I am really loving this commercial. Featuring a really nifty pair of comfy looking thong Uggs, this ad has a very exotic looking model who appears to be looking off into the bland sunset. Actually, you can’t even see the sun in this picture. …

Look: A Philippine Fashion Magazine
Whenever I have the time, I like to browse around magazine stores, especially second-hand magazine stores such as Filbars, to see what the market is offering in terms of magazines, both local and international magazines. Although I still like international fashion magazines, I have long ago learned to depend …
Canon Power Shot SD870IS (magazine ad)
I don’t know much about tennis. And I sure don’t know much about Maria Sharapova. But I can say one thing about this ad for the Canon Power Shot digital camera: this ad is lame, lame, lame. In it she’s shown taking pictures of …
CaressBrazilian.com (magazine ad)
Nicole Scherzinger is the face on this ad. But I don’t think she’s actually Brazilian. Just because she has long dark hair and a fresh face, she is the new face for this product. The ad itself looks really really cheesy. And the palm …
Best Buy Gift Card (magazine ad)
If you had a gift card for Best Buy, would you feel like it was burning a hole in your pocket? Well that’s what this ad wants to make you believe. Now, I know that Best Buy offers many more products than movies and music. In …

KY Liquibeads (magazine ad)
I must be a real prude. But I was a little surprised to see an ad for a KY product in a magazine. I have no idea why. Anyway, this particular product convinces women that they can experience “natural” moisture for at least 4 …
Seer
I regularly read the columns of Swami Sukhabodhananda in newspapers and listen to his speeches telecast on Aastha international channel. He has a unique knack of telling issues in scriptures in a simple language. The seer’s teachings are simple but not simplistic. He talks are interspersed with humorous anecdotes …
A helpful and interesting read.
Last night I purchased an Allure magazine from a local book store. I paid about $2.99 for it. On the cover of this month’s mag is a picture of Mariah Carey. Some of the headlines on the cover include, “Easy Sexy Hair”, “The Best Fall Makeup”, and “10 Hidden …
First: A Magazine for Women on the Go
Reading magazines is my favorite pastime. I have all kinds of magazines for my different interests. I have so many of them because every magazine has different focus. It is very rare that I find a magazine with most, if not all of my interests discussed there. Most of …

Texas Roadhouse in East Madison, WI
For anyone, this is my favorite cheap steak restaurant. There is just something about the way they cook their beef, because it seems to be perfect all the time. The meat is also so perfectly seasoned, while being so tender. I love the perfected blend of different seasonings which …
Old School Wrestling (OSW)
On the internet, there is no shortage of resources for fans of professional wrestling. There is a majority that are distinctly American in their perspective, often marred by nostalgia. Save for the UK’s WrestletalkTV, the viewpoint of wrestling fans outside of the US is minimal. Fortunately, …
Dodge Journey (magazine ad)
Now this is a really inventive ad. For the Dodge Journey, a creative team has come up with the idea to recreate the household floor plan and place it inside the vehicle. I believe this is really a crossover SUV instead of a minivan. …
Lionsgate (magazine ad)
I have never ever seen an ad for a movie house before. Furthermore, I have never seen a production house use a line of films by a specific director, to market the production company. Lionsgate is actually one of my favorite production companies because they tend …
Cosmopolitan Magazine
My favorite magazine is Cosmopolitan. I’m not sure why, but it beats out all the others by a mile and a half. Cosmo (as it’s known by most people who’ve heard of it), has everything that a woman in her early 20’s could want to read about. …
Bio-Oil Scar Treatment (magazine ad)

Platinum by Montecristo Cigars (magazine ad)
I don’t smoke cigars, nor do I have a desire to. I am aware that there is a certain sophistication involved in cigar smoking. Creative teams responsible for this ad obviously thought that sex appeal needed to be incorporated into the ad. There is a …
