There are many reasons to hate economy class on an airplane; alphabetically, the first two that come to mind are aching legs and bad food. Who could have guessed, however, that the advent of the camera phone would make coach even more unpleasant? It's is only a problem for the less homely among us--rarities in economy class anyway-but this ad for Vodaphone in France should serve as a lesson to us all: Always sleep facing away from your seatmate.
Say hello to Mr. Switzerland. He and other himbos are being used in an new ad campaign that asks football widows to consider escaping "this summer's World Cup to a country where men spend less time on football, and more time on you." Anonymous bank accounts, chocolate, diplomats out the wazoo--what's not for the ladies to like over there?
The ad also includes a sexy farmhand, train conductor, mountain climber, ferryman, and a lumberjack -- it's like the Village People moved Switzerland to get health insurance. The ads will start running next month in France, Germany and Switzerland.
