Short rationale (optional):
‘Don’t drink and drive’. Its a message that is so ubiquitous in big cities, it has actually become a blind spot. What this jaded ‘public’ message needed was a personal touch. An emotional connect that would not only make people notice this message, but act on it.
Had a Drink? Think!

/ppHaving appeared a href=”http://adweek.blogs.com/adfreak/2006/09/anyone_figured_.html”with an amphibious rodent/a on behalf of a sleep medication (Rozerem), as an unsuccessful a href=”http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=F7599xQs0GA”stovepipe-hat-toting job applicant/a (College Level Exam Program, circa early ’70s) and in innumerable tawdry tie-ins for annual Presidents Day sales, what latest commercial humiliation must our noble 16th president suffer? Have no fear,  Regis and Kelly have the answer. In a new spot from Tierney Communications, TD Bank features Abraham Lincoln fretting over pennies and ultimately walking off the set while the extremely unhelpful ad duo look on. Have Reeg and K.R. been advised that in 2009 the U.S. government will celebrate the 200th birthday of the Great Emancipator with, yes, a href=”http://www.usmint.gov/mint_programs/lincolnredesign/index.cfm?flash=yes”newly minted 1-cent pieces/a?
