I was watchin the Charlie Brown Christmas special tonite...

There was this ad for UPS... a guy is waiting outside a UPS Store... he was cold... he decides to make "shipping peanut" angels. Cute...

I took a double take of the UPS Store... and pause the commercial... and look again... and guess what???

IT'S THE UPS STORE NEAR OUR HOUSE! A little closer examination, you can see the sign to the Mexican restaurant next door!!!

Too funny!

Wow. Pretty cool.

Does the local Chamber of Commerce give you a tax cut for increased revenue in the area?

Well that's one way to get snow out your way.

Did the econazis have a fit about all the plastic peanuts?

I get the feeling the snow was digitally added to the store front.

The "peanut" angels were done in a studio somewhere... there isn't a chunk of lawn big enough to make that scene work.

If you replay the commercial and look really close at the reflection, you can see Bogus chowing down on a Carne Asada.

You can see the outline of EBJ's lighted sign next door. It looks like they might have tried to blur it a bit.

This is almost like the time I saw an ex girlfriend of mine, some years after the fact, interviewed on TV as a representative of the Moonies.
Nah, I guess it's really not...
