Default Good Ones
Those are good, I personally got a good chuckle from the Vonage ads that harkened back to the 1960s. Got a good chuckle when the demonstrator said that the phone could call Puerto Rico and he picked up, dialed a number and we heard 'Ola?. Ola?' on the other end and he callously hung up (the implication being that he had just dialed a number at random)....
