That's a great Christmas drinking picture. It's perhaps the best one I've stumbled across. If anybody has others, I'd love to see them.
Ferrell
I'm not a big Will Ferrell fan, although he definitely cracks me up sometimes. But I used to be a big fan of Old Milwaukee, and I guess Ferrell used to be, too (he claims he still is, but let's face it, it's hard to believe a guy with his money is drinking Old Swill). He has now produced a series of Old Milwaukee advertisements for the Quad City region of Iowa. They look sound entertaining enough. I'll have to Youtube 'em:
In one ad, Ferrell, dressed in a blue T-shirt with the word "Iowa," imprinted on the front, says that Davenport is an Old Milwaukee kind of town. Ferrell then walks through the letters of Davenport to describe the beer's attributes, but gives up in frustration.
In a second ad, Ferrell appears to be fishing on the Mississippi River, a can of Old Milwaukee nearby.
"When I'm not too busy being a big-time Hollywood phony," Ferrell says at the beginning, "I like to come out here to Davenport, sit on my favorite log and crack open an ice-cold Old Milwaukee." Ferrell then admits he's never been to Davenport, but says it's something he wanted to do, or something that looks like it would be fun to do.
And in the third ad, Ferrell emerges from the cold river water, doing a little "hand-fishing," he says, and pulls a can of Old Milwaukee out of the water.
Wine Gift
I've long thought a bottle of wine makes a great holiday gift. Even before I drank wine, I enjoyed a free bottle that I could offer future guests. This article has a nifty set of suggested gift wines, broken down by price range.
