Someone please help me put a spending limit on my iTunes music store account!
cool ads
So the guy that did the awesome homemade 20th AE GTI ad just put another one of his work, it is still funny, but the first one is still my favorite. (here's the post where I blogged about it)

And also, I've been searching for this BMW ad up and down and all over the place ever since Ryan told me he saw it on speedvision one day... finally, someone posted a link to it on the stlvw board. The ad gave me an adrenaline rush just watching it.

ps. right click + save target as

Watching MTV True Life - I live in the terror zone really opened my eyes. This episode of True Life captures the lives of couple of young teens living in Israel and Palestine, how they deal with their daily lives, their fears, ...etc. Last week's True Life showcased couple of U.S. military men and women and their lives in Iraq, which is an equally interesting subject.

The youths today determines our future tomorrow, and MTV recognizes that and is taking full advantage of it to get the message out to it's target audience. According to some news source that I've read, ever since 9-11, teens and young adults are paying more attention to global issues and politics, as more and more of their friends' life are affected by the war on terrorism.

I think as long as MTV presents news and info in an unbiased mode, or try to presents both side of the story, I do think there is hope for the future, and that the youths today could really make a difference tomorrow.

With the explosion of online music store, there should at least be one or more dance/electronic digital music store right? Why can't I find any?! And it is a really big bummer that these giant major online stores does not cater to the more obscure market. sigh.
