Apropos of nothing.

If this link works, it may be of interest to some of you beer drinkers.
http://www.bigad.com.au/

Edit: OK, try just www.bigad.com.au and see if that works better

Hi Zap:
Been busy......real busy.
I cannot get the damn thing to download on f150online although it downloaded fine from the original site.
Assuming you got it to work, please tell the gang how as I thought it was absolutely frigging funny. But then, I worked with Aussies for almost 30 years and enjoyed their company more than I should have.
In my prime as a sort of International Business Traveller, there were only three nationalities that could drink me under the table. Russians, Finns and Aussies in that order. No one else compares, believe me.
Cheers
Bill

I can get the website, but my firewall/ Norton Internet Security will not allow the video to download. I'm not going to disable my security in order to view it, hopefully I'm not missing much.

OK:
I do not want to cause any problems but it is one really funny video and I am not competent just yet to sort out all the details of the how to get it the way I posted it.

So, I also belong to a military vehicle website and here is how how you can see it as I did.
Go to: www.mapleleafup.org/forums
Go to: The Sergeants Mess
Go to: A funny Ad

It downloaded from there just fine for me and it is a legitimate ad, trust me, and it is funny as hell.

Just tried it on this foum and it works great!! Make sure to crank up the sound.
Cheers
Bill

Bill, My operating system is too old to run the program. (You know how it is, old fart that's stuck in the past and refuses to update.) I haven't tried the military website yet, but I surmise I'll get the same results there.

Sorry!

I guess it is time to dump this thread, but if you go to the Canadian military vehicle forum and follow my lead, it can be done. It loads slower that way but I just showed it to some family and neighbors a few minutes ago and they were falling on the floor.
If anyone can post a "clearer" link, please do.
Bill
