    Superbowl Commercial

    Not sure if anyone saw the VW commercial during the Superbowl.....
    If you did not, click on this.....

    I did NOT find it racist (a lot of controversy on this), and I actually found it VERY endearing to my Jamaican friends and my lovely favorite vacation destination.

    Made me think of my lovely home away from home........

    Brought a smile to my face!!!!!

    See my thread "The ruling on the field..." for the Red Stripe response
    Sing unto God, sing praises to his name: extol him that rideth upon the heavens by his name JAH, and rejoice before him. KJV Psalm 68:4

    Definitely brought a smile to my face
    We would all be guilty of racism if talking in a Jamaican accent when you are not Jamaican is considered racist.
    I personally do a really bad rendition of it.
