New Marketing Style (Crayola)
We have seen lately a new form of marketing. This new style of marketing involves companies branding themselves with other irrelevant products. As discussed in class, Crayola has embarked on marketing itself with different products like toothbrushes. While at the store I recently noticed the string cheese with the craloya advertisements as well. What does string cheese have to with crayola? I have no idea, but I guess the more advertising the better, especcially at thing young impact age of the target market of string cheese eating children.

Chimpanzees in commercials!!
Why are chimpanzees so funny. I have no idea but I do know that the marketing indaustry has adapted it as its true and faithful mascot. I do not remember the last super bowl that did not have an advertisement featuring a chimp.
NO worries though, I hope the trend continues long into the future. Some of the shorts today are so bad I wouldn't ming snl being replaced by monkeys as well. You cant write that kind of simple comedy.

Super Bowl Commercials
This year seemed to have a lot more violent commercials than past super bowls. I am wandering why it seemed every other commercial had someone getting hurt?
It is funny though, just seems a little lazy on the advertisers part to use physical humor soo often. I guess at thirty million dollars a minute you go with what works.
