Old Spice

I know, I know, you've all seen those funny commercials but did you know that
my ridiculously talented cousin was featured in the newspaper today for those Emmy winning commercials? No, he is not the NFL Hunk the commercial features, rather he is the creative genius behind the commercials.

Here is the link to see the various commercials:

Here is the article in today's paper:

Here is the commercial that my cousin wrote for his wife Jill featuring the NFL Player:

Jason and Jill's blog is listed under "my cousins" in case you want to get more of their story.

Oh yeah, I thought I should mentioned that I have a number of talented and witty cousins. Anything from singer-song-writers (Merissa Wilson and Jessica Rose) to well known bloggers such as Cardigan Empire. Go ahead Google them.

Does their talent make me almost famous?

I, too, am basking in the famous glow. I think that it does make me famous to have famous cousins.
