It's a combo of painting and 'shopping Alfredo.

The person over this campaign at AT&T is a friend of mine. I see them full-size at the ATL airport regularly - they're amazing.

That's really cool John! If you see him again, please tell him he has a new fan :) These are absolutely fantastic, both in idea as well as in execution.

It's a she, Vijay - her names is Pamela Papner, and I'll pass it along. While that's not her creative, she's very talented (and also has a law degree). We're both active in our neighborhood http://vahi.org

The real question is... what brand of french fry do birds prefer? McDonalds, Burger King, etc.? I'm guessing they're Popeyes fries lovers

I really hope this 'bacon' craze gets squashed by the threat of swine flu. Food that slowly kills you is not 'cool', nor has it ever been. Carl's Jr. wants us to basically have sex with their hamburgers, so that we will forget about the fact that they are selling death between two sugared buns. Truly sad. I recommend EVERYONE go and see "Food, Inc" when it hits your city.

That's not funny. Bacon flu killed my uncle five years ago, you insensitive pig.

And if we combine swine and bird flu we can have "bacon and egg" flu which is even tastier - if the flu don't getcha the heart attack will

The Pork industry will still not be happy with "bacon flu"

HAHAHA @ Nicholas. That is the funniest thing I've read all day.

Bacon flu still sounds distasteful. Maybe we should call it 'bacon bits'. A high school 5 miles from my house (San Jose) closed down for a week today because a student was confirmed to have bacon bits.

Gee, Christopher. Really? Bacon had nothing to do with it? That's fantastic. Anyway, my point is, this recent 'bacon craze' is really just another internet craze that usually dies out after a few weeks, Related or not, it's just my hope that the onset of swine flu could kill the fad, mainly because it's annoying as hell. It's a stretch to relate the two, but who cares? It's worth it if I don't have to hear about how friggin' cool bacon is anymore. I'm sure it won't, but I can always dream.

@Fleagle: lol, it's just "another internet craze that usually dies out after a few weeks" that's been going on for months at least, possibly years.
- Chieze Okoye
Months? Maybe. Years. Not really. The 'spike' has happened quite recently, as others have caught on and decided to wax poetic about the pork product in all it's glory. Sure, people will always talk about bacon, but not quite as much as they do right now.
- Fleagle
I'll chime in once more, then I swear I'm done. Yes, you are correct in that it would give evidence of a mass ignorance or stupidity, but really, would anyone be surprised? Of course bacon has nothing to do with the virus, but you can see how this recent 'pandemic' can immediately put people in a mass panic. Most people react with little or no information whatsoever. It's the sensasionalist media mentality that rules supreme.
- Fleagle
Fleagle, I can honestly say that you are literally the first person I have ever met that is this righteously angry at bacon.
- Chieze Okoye
And besides, it's been proven that bacon cures hangovers, so maybe the bacon flu isn't so bad after all :)
- Kevin Elliott
it's bacon fever in spanish. THat's the translation, so why not go for that
- Eric
So when you get a fever, you can say that you're fried?

"This fish might look made for science—or just plain made-up—but it's 100-percent real. First described in 1939, this "barreleye" has been somewhat of a mystery to science. But researchers from the Monterey Bay Aquarium Research Institute were recently able to catch one of the deep-sea creatures and study it in a shipboard aquarium. They've learned that the fish can actually rotate its eyes upward to peer through its transparent, liquid-filled head. It's believed that the green color of the eyes (seen here looking sky-ward) might help to filter out sunlight so the fish can better spot its prey—glowing jellyfish—from its stomping grounds 2,000-2,600 feet (600-800 meters) below the surface."
