Ok, here is my official list of Ads Your Gal Will Not Like. While tastes in humor vary (a lot) these are mostly SFW and I bet even the gals chuckle over these. Why 11? Well, while most blogs put together wimpy lists of 10, we go to 11 baby! As far as I know, they are all real ads, no photoshops here. Enjoy!
#1
#2 (are those friction burns? ouch)
#3 (every nerd’s life story)
#4 (this is supposedly real. Crazy Canucks)
#5
#6
#7 (Lysol? What is going on down there?)
#8 (this is a lube ad - think about it . . .)
#9
#10 (this is a tampon ad. Pretty impressive really)
#11 (and the Pièce de Résistance)
Update: Not the original picture used. See why here.

So talk about kicking a guy when he is down, John Travolta came to Tom Cruise’s “defense” over last week’s video:
The much-discussed clip, still making the rounds on the Web, shows the Mission: Impossible megastar praising the Church of Scientology and saying that followers have “the ability to create new and better realities.” (His rep says the footage was filmed for a private church event in 2004.)
Travolta, 53, claims the intense media scrutiny has gone too far. “[Tom] has – we all have – the right to practice how we feel,” he told PEOPLE Saturday at Australia.com’s G’Day L.A. gala celebrating Australia Week 2008. “It finally becomes unfair.”
I mean, if you are Tom Cruise and basically just about everyone thinks you are nuttier than squirrel poop the last thing you really need is another fruitcake coming to your defense. That’s like Manson putting in a plea of leniency for OJ, or Paris Hilton vouching for your girlfriend’s chaste view on premarital sex, or falling off a boat and someone throws you an anchor, or . . . well you get the idea.
If you haven’t seen Tom’s video it’s basically too late - the Church Of Scientology folks have had it taken off of Google and YouTube. I had a copy of the video but the Scientology goons threatened to anal probe me and cleanse my Thetan if I didn’t take it down. I had my Thetan cleansed once in San Francisco for $40 but it wasn’t all that. Here is a cool link to all the videos that are no longer there.

Ok, drunk driving is a serious problem. In fact, it is arguably worse than drunk dialing and drunk shaving at the same time just to give you a rough idea of the magnitude of the problem.
So this drunk Kiwi decides to drive home on his lawnmower. Now, in a perfect world drunk New Zealanders wouldn’t even be newsworthy (and they wouldn’t drive drunk) but since that seems likely to remain unchanged, this guy may have struck inebriated gold. I mean if you had every drunk driver in the nation drive their lawnmowers instead of their cars do you have any idea how many lives we could save?
WELLINGTON, New Zealand (AP) — A New Zealand man has been charged with driving a lawn mower while drunk, police said Tuesday.
Richard Gunn, 52, was driving the ride-on lawn mower down a street in the northern New Zealand town of Dargaville late Monday evening when police stopped him, police spokeswoman Sarah Kennett said.
Gunn’s breath alcohol level was at more than twice the legal limit for drivers, police said, and he previously had lost his driver’s license.
Gunn said he has been using the lawn mower to get around town since losing his license.
“I thought I was safe,” he told TV One News.
Even bicycles went faster than the lawn mower’s 8 kilometers per hour (5 miles per hour), he said. “I’ve watched them go past me.”
Gunn was scheduled to appear in court later this week on charges of careless driving, driving while disqualified and driving with excess breath alcohol. He faces a potential prison term if convicted.
The New Zealand police impounded the lawn mower for 28 days.

Ok, so Dario Franchitti of IRL and now NASCAR fame is a stud according to ESPN’s Terry Blount:
“I was just sitting in the kitchen, eating a bowl of cereal in my boxer shorts,” Franchitti said. “I looked up and some guy is standing in front of me. He just walked in the house.
“I really don’t think I was the one he was looking for, but the guy quickly turned around and ran out of the house. He got in his car and sped off. So what did I do? I got in my car and chased him.”
But Franchitti forgot one important thing in his quest to catch the intruder.
“The police caught up [to] the guy before I did,” Franchitti said. “And apparently some people in the Nashville media also heard on the [police scanner] about it, so they were there, too. They came up to talk to me about the time I realized I was still in my boxer shorts. I had to stay in the car the whole time.”
So, if you have seen this story anywhere else, they invariably had a dashing photo of Dario for the headline. Well, I don’t know what kind of homo-erotic sites you normally visit but let’s be clear - this story is about whats-his-name’s hot-ass wife - Ashley Judd. How did this Terry Blount from ESPN even get a job as a reporter with this type of interview? He probably went to some fancy journalist school where their idea of hazing is a group circle jerk around a Walter Kronkite doll.
Where are the hard-hitting questions about what Ashley was wearing at the time of the crime, or if their marriage is having any problems that could be solved by a dashing blogger? What does Dario really have to offer? Anyway, I hear what he lacks in technique, he makes up for in speed. (zing!)

The Formula One superlicense cost has changed significantly this season according to Autosport.
To be an F1 driver, you must have a superlicense. In 2007, an F1 superlicense cost 1,690 Euros plus 447 Euros for every point you scored in 2006’s championship.
In 2008, this has changed dramatically – a license will now cost 10,000 Euros plus an extra 2,000 Euros for every point you scored in 2007’s championship.
The new costings mean that Ferrari will be spending 428,000 Euros this season on licenses alone – Kimi Raikkonen’s license will be a whopping 230,000 Euros, and Felipe Massa’s will be 198,000 Euros.
Despite the huge cost, this is just a drop in the ocean to the Ferrari team who allegedly pay Raikkonen $51 million (around 35 million Euros).

So Lebron James gets tagged for doing 101MPH in the wee hours of the morning in Ohio and still makes it to his birthday party in Vegas that same day. I got stopped for a broken taillight in Kansas once and I got a pistol whipping and locked up in the town jail. In hindsight, the dead hooker in the trunk may have hurt my case a little. Anyway, nice to see that celebrity privilege is not completely monopolized by the LAPD because you or I would be spending some time downtown on that one.
LeBron James’ 23rd birthday started with the flashing lightbar of a state patrol cruiser in Medina County and ended with flashing cameras in Las Vegas.
The Cavaliers’ star was ticketed for driving 101 mph on Interstate 71 at 2:43 a.m. Dec. 30.
James, who lives in Sharon Township, was driving his 2008 white four-door Mercedes with vanity license plates ”KNG OF AK” southbound on the highway in Brunswick Hills Township when he was stopped. The speed limit on that stretch of highway is 65 mph.
