Guess what day it is??

Jared is a commercial addict. Ever since he was a little kid, he would be mesmerized by commercials. He can watch them once and then spout them off to anyone who is in his vicinity for days and weeks afterwards. (Cooper has most definitely inherited this ability to see and hear something once and then turn around and perform it verbatim. As impressive as it is, however, I have learned it's selective. What Cooper memorizes has to be something he wants to remember :)

To this day, after the passage of twenty years or more, Jared still has the Jet Stream Oven slogan memorized. In college, the appliance was being shown again on TV and Jared piped up and said, "Oh, it's the Jet Stream Oven! It cooks oven quality food, microwave fast." His roommate's mouth dropped open and stared at Jared like he was an alien.

This is Jared's favorite commercial at the moment.

It is funny. The camel strutting through the office, the annoyed facial expressions of the office workers and his vocal exuberance. It's hilarious to Jared's audience because he's a one-man-show. He can imitate all the facial expressions and voices
per.fect.ly. He had the girls at the office rolling with laughter the last couple of weeks he's done it.

And every week since then, on Wednesday, I end up with 3 or 4 little camels running around the house shouting "Guess what day it is? Whoot! Whoot! Hump daaay. Yay!"
