Near as I can tell this is a TV ad for a bank in Turkey. The quality isn't the best, probably because it was pulled off the TV. But the choreography is pretty cool.

How do you keep an idiot in suspense?
Aubri's cousin, Eddie Bonine, made his debut in the bigs this afternoon, pitching for the Detroit Tigers. He went five and a third, gave up 6 earned runs on 9 hits, and got 2 K's. His ERA was pretty high - 10.12 - but he got the win.
I may have to reconsider my total disdain for the Tigers now that there's a family connection.
Halfway through a flight from N.Y. to L.A. a drop-dead beautiful blonde passenger gets up out of her seat, walks up to first class and sits down.
A flight attendant watches this, goes to the blonde and asks her to please return to her assigned seat.
The blonde looks the flight attendant straight in the eye and says, "I'm blonde, I'm beautiful, and I'm going to L.A. in first class."
Sensing trouble the flight attendant gets the lead attendant. The lead attendant goes up to first class and asks the blonde to please return to her assigned seat in coach.
But again the blonde says, "I'm blonde, I'm beautiful, and I'm flying to L.A. in first class."
The two attendants go together to the cockpit and tell the captain what's happened. He hears their story and says, "My wife is a blonde. I know how to handle this."
He then goes back to the blonde, leans over and whispers something in her ear. The lady immediately gets up, gathers her things and returns to coach.
"How in the world did you do that?" the attendants ask the captain.
"Simple" he says. "I just told her first class isn't going to L.A."
I think a Nobel Prize should be awarded to whoever invented the liquid laundry detergent cap that works as a measuring dispenser and then drains any residue of liquid soap back into the jug when the cap is screwed back on. I'm very impressed!
Report: R Kelly was going to appear on the new TV show "The Mole" but when they did the screen test he didn't show up on the film.
It's hard to believe that there are still blatant "old boys clubs" in the workplace. I thought we'd progressed beyond that. Apparently not.
This has to work its way through the legal system, and the truth often lies someplace in between two drastically different stories. But NASCAR looks like it has a real problem.
On a barely related note, I'm glad we (at least a growing number of us) have moved beyond a degree of chauvinism in the church. Not that many years ago we attended a church where women were not allowed to speak in a worship service. They could sing a solo, a duet, etc., but they shouldn't speak at any point in that process. And the notion of a woman leading the congregation in prayer was unthinkable.
I am convinced that the Bible teaches in very clear terms that the church should be led by godly men. Any other view requires a wresting of the text of the NT. But aside from that one office/function - spiritual authority over a man - the Bible places no restrictions on a woman's service in the local church.
I appreciate the ministry of the women at Pathway when they lead us in a portion of our worship.
Note to self: In the extremely unlikely event that you're ever asked to participate in the design of a motorcycle, make sure that the brake and clutch levers don't get painted flat black. In the blazing sun of a 110 degree day they get really hot! Chrome would be much better.
I've been working tomorrow's sermon for the last two days. It's been written since Thursday afternoon but it lacked life and a spot-on connection with reality. I feel better about it this evening. I hope I feel good about it tomorrow evening. And if I don't, I hope the Holy Spirit will find a way to use it anyway.
"We have this treasure in jars of clay to show that this all-surpassing power is from God, and not from us" (2 Cor. 4:7).
