In what I’m hoping will become a regular feature, I’m going to be posting some of what I consider to be some of the best tv spots or ads that I’ve come across. To start, we’ve got (perhaps an older commercial) and Stavros for Mr. Sub’s Chicken Souvflaki sub.

I just noticed I was tagged 5 days ago by Zachary Houle for a game of blog tag that’s going around the blogosphere.. five things you probably don’t know about me:

1. I used to swim competitively and went to the OFSAA finals for men’s 800 free-style and I think I did about 200m in the men’s relay.
2. I co-wrote a 1-hour play back in high school entitled “Home Honey I’m Hi” created a site (RIP script-source.com) to host it and about 250 other independantly written/amateur scripts, screenplays, and it was subsequently performed by two high schools: one in Guam, the other I believe was in Saskatchewan. I’ve not been able to find a copy of the script since a hard drive crash in 2001. I know there were backup copies somewhere, it could be floating on the internet somewhere.
3. I played the clarinet in high school band. I couldn’t read sheet music fast enough, so I just played by ear/memory.
4. I love to cook….less a fan of the clean-up.
5. I took piano lessons until I was 9 or 10. I want to learn how to play again.

Owen, Chris Erwin, Spencer Callaghan, Dave Bobak, and foo, you’re up!

37Signals, the makers of Basecamp, and Ruby on Rails recently released a free html version of their book Getting Real. I had purchased the book several months ago and there are some useful approaches in there and if you’re a developer, UI engineer, or even a project manager, it’s probably worth a read. Grab a cup of coffee, and get a copy of the free version here.
