The Crazy Ones

In this sometimes very cynical world...a pause to ponder greatness and good.

Regardless of your computer preference, an important reminder. Easily my favorite TV ad of all time.

I play it periodically as inspiration. So many of my heroes and so many who changed the world.

Here's to the spirit of adventure, innovation and imagination. It will change the world again and again.

Haha did anybody notice that this is on the TextEditor icon in OS X?

What is, this video/image?

[helimeef]

No, the phrase. The TextEdit icon in OS X is a sheet of paper with a pencil writing on it, and it says the phrase said in this commercial.

Does it? It's too small for me to read, I was looking at it in "Get Info". Very cool bit of trivia though :)

Great ad. Horrid product, but that's a discussion for another day.
