The long story is this, I got an iPhone about two weeks after they came out. I’m not the type to get all mushy about a piece of technology but it done changed my life. (If you don’t know, then you better borrow your cousin’s and check it out. I’m not gonna go on a whole tangent but messing around with an iPhone is like reaching into the future and hanging out with super attractive aliens at a hot party…or something.) About a month after I got it, I was asked to fly to L.A. to actually be in an iPhone commercial. You know, the ones with the “regular” person standing in front of the black background? Right! Well, I was getting all excited to go out there and this real stupid song popped into my head. As you may know, I’m a hip hop artist so of course I think, “why not record the thing?” about a day later it’s recorded. Then I think, “why not recut the iPhone guy lipsyncing my song?” That’s where Arrow and Merritt hooked me up. Arrow’s like the Wolf from Pulp Fiction. If George Bush knew Arrow, this whole Iraq business would be sewn up by now. Anyway, Arrow made some calls, tracked down Merritt and Merritt worked his delicate fingers to the bone crafting this exquisite piece of art. We’re pretty sure we have about two weeks before Apple threatens to break our kneecaps so enjoy it while it lasts.

Even though it is for the ‘wrong’ company, here is a lovely tv commercial.http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RVyofNRyGzA[/youtub e]

What is a career in TV likely to look like?

While waiting for the new - indefinetely postponed - season of 24, here is some related audio visual entertainment.

If 24 started in the mid 1990s, this is what it would have looked like (I love “Jack” “Bauer” running to the payphone each time he gets paged). Enjoy:

And here’s another spoof, this time “Jack” “Bauer” and “Tony” “Almeida” interrupting a car chase to order some food at Wacky Burgers.

What Jack does on his day off:

And some screen tests from “Keifer” “Sutherland”:

A couple of guys went through the trouble and made a fun spoof, telling of what happens during the commercial break:

Here’s the text I found on a package of Band Aid:

It adopts the Adhesive Ventilation Plastes so asto make the wonderful flexibility in any joints.

If you can translate this, please let us know of the meaning

The Brand is called “Bang Tian”.

Part 1 is here.
