I have heard rumor that this commercial has Laurie Coleman green screened in, I would never have thought about it but now that I think about it the shot looked like Coleman was a movie in the background. The commercial did seem kind of strange to me in viewing it.
The counter is very reflective and I see no reflection. The background is fuzzy which may be because of depth of field. If so, this is a really big kitchen or a set. Also Laurie is very brightly and professionally lit but again no reflections from the backlight.

Am I crazy? Anybody know anymore about this?

Paul McKim is a Republican businessman with no ties to Al Franken.

This is another example of Norm Coleman’s lying, corrupt, opportunistic, say-anything, Bush-Roveian idea of governance.

It’s time to say goodbye to Norm on November 4th.

Vote Al Franken loud and proud baby.

I was surprised this morning to open up the online Strib to see that the Star Tribune was sold to Avista, a private New York investment firm

Just wanted to fix that.

“Withdrawn. Dead. Non-issue.”

Refiled after settlement to hush things up breaks down. Now appearing on Twin Cities newsprograms.

Doesn’t sound like a non-issue to me.

Not so fast icecycle here’s an UPDATE From the Huffington Post:

An official close to the proceedings tells the Huffington Post that the case is now going back to court. The two parties, he said, had reached an agreement to drop the suit and hammer out a settlement. But negotiations broke down and the suit has been re-introduced.

Hate to break it to you icecycle, but as of about 9:00 PM on Thursday, 10/30, the case has been reinstated. The lawsuit was withdrawn because settlement talks cam about real quick and quite-like. But those fell apart today so now we’re back on. I guess we all know what will be the big news on Halloween. More of Coleman’s weasel Cullen Sheehan giving B.S. press releases.

“accused in a lawsuit filed (and withdrawn)”

Withdrawn. Dead. Non-issue.

“Coleman said the claim was “’simply false.’…”

Asked and answered. Dead. Non-issue.
