All-time favorite commercials?
The thread about what shows we would like to see on DVD made me realize that what I'd really like to see are some of the great commercials. C'mon - you must have a favorite or two. Here's some of mine:

Miller Lite with Bob Uecker: "I must be in the front row."
Wendy’s, with Russian models: "Is next..swimwear! Very nice!"
John Houseman for Smith Barney: "We make money the old fashioned way - we earn it."
Joe Isuzu
Monster.com: "When I grow up ... "
Alka-Seltzer: "I can't believe I ate the whole thing"
"AFLAC!"
Coca-Cola: Mean Joe Green throws the jersey to the kid
Fed-Ex: "DOOMED!"
Noxzema shave cream: "Take it off, take it all off."
The puppet dog for Pets.com

Any favorites?
