It's also at least a couple of years old. What's next, Steve? Apple's "1984" commercial?

No, Jay, I mean that the CareerBuilder bustop ad Steve posted is several years old. I believe it was done by the Martin Agency. You're right: The Economist did something very similar -- a few years before CareerBuilder, if memory serves.
And Steve - you know we only rag on you because we love you. Next to Mistress Cleo's International House of Escorts, this is my favorite website.

What year did this actually run? I like it but feel that the one currently running for Morgans is much more on target.
