In An Absolut World
Absolut brand vodka recently caused a bit of a stir when they ran this print ad, featuring Mexico as it was before the U.S. took over about a third of that country in the mid-19th century. What do you think? Controversial or not?
I suppose its controversial if one doesn't know how to take a joke, or if you're a middle-aged guy who like to spend nights sitting in a lawn chair on the border pretending be a citizen soldier.
