Two Girls and a Mechanical Deer: Axe’s New Campaign

Axe is going quite a bit sexier this year with the “hot Christmas” video greeting card. You can personalize it on Facebook. Two girls in lingerie or bathing suits, and they’re riding a mechanical deer. I’m going to have to say it’s far more interesting than a dude in a towel… even if the special effects and quirky attitude are missing.

Deer Roams Suwannee Publix Supermarket

The fawn duo roamed Publix, and one dove over the Sushi container... making a statement about animal rights.

A couple deer (fawns to be precise) wandered a Publix supermarket in Suwannee, Georgia. The noises of the frustrated fawns (see YouTube video below) sounds freakishly human. In an moment guilty of at least two cases of irony, James Chronicle — a founder of a Suwanee-based non-profit called the Georgia Animal Protection Society — “chronicled” the event in this video via his cell phone.

Bad pun and cheesy headlines include: “Oh deer: fawn go shopping,” and “Attention shoppers… a deer in isle 1.” Interestingly a “venison publix” search revealed that this isn’t the first time — a crime report of a Publix in Pinelass County, Florida shows a similar event in late 2009.

I can’t find a statement from Publix on the event, but the grocery chain is listing job openings for a meat cutter. (Slow people need not apply).

Happy Monday: Real-life Thumper and Bambi

The trick to being happy is to feel good. So watch this albiet archain video showing a real-life Thumper and Bambi. This deer and rabbit get along wonderfully. Now relax and feel wonderful about your week. Yey! Thanks, Jan. We don’t know how you find these, but love that you keep sending ’em.

Speaking of animals, I spent about 3 hours this morning editing a future video that’s a battle of the cutest Halloween contests… it’s BabysitterofNalts’ Rusty (a pug) versus Triscuit (a cute cat with sharp teeth). Various cute costumes, lovely music and voiceovers by Nalts and Wifeofnalts. Certainly has viral potential. Of course I won’t be including the shot in which Rusty took a bite out of Triscuit’s tail, and Triscuit clenched her teeth on babysitterofnalts’ finger, which is now in some strange cast. Sorry Jen.

Animals are so gosh darned cute, though. Even cuter than the pale, hopeless, corporate faces I encountered in my walk into the office today.
