Not Just Phoning it in

I really enjoy the Cingular commercials featuring dropped calls. My favorites are the one with the mother telling her daughter not to make the same mistake she did by getting married in Vegas, the one with the guy calling a girl after a first date: his expression when he realizes he has just said he wouldn't kiss his sister is great, and of course, the one with the butcher who asks if the meat supplier's wife has eaten all of the roast beef. He just keeps digging himself deeper in that one.
I also like the commercials for Comcast Digital Voice which feature people making phone calls hoping for different responses now that they are on Comcast Digital Voice. The best one of these features a man with full body striped tattoos calling the tatto artist who can be heard saying (with fabulous Asian accent) "I tell you tattoo permanent. You human tiger now!" Awesome

The butcher is a classic and better than 90% of current sit-coms, should get an emmy.

hopefully they won' actually turn it into a sitcom a la Cavemen. Love those Geico commercials but seriuosly - what were they thinking?
