Watching television a few days ago, I caught an ad for the BK Stuffed Steakhouse Burger and I have to say that my first thought wasn't, "Gee, I think I'll go try one." No, it was, "Wow, that really reminded my of a He-Man commercial. I wonder if that was intentional. I wonder where mom packed away the old He-Man action figures. I think they should be with Voltron, the Transformers, and the ewoks." Don't get me wrong. It was a memorable commercial. I just don't think I'm remembering it for the right reason. Anyway, in case you're curious, here are the two side by side (or one on top of the other).
