Why did Hebrew National Hot Dogs hire Adam West to do the narration for their new commercial?

You know... That whole Batman - hot dogs connection thing...
Why is it that when Miley Cyrus gets naked and licks a hammer it's 'art' and 'edgy' but when I do it I'm 'drunk' and 'banned from the hardware store'?

Perhaps they "answer to a higher authority", Jim.

btw: Has Mr. West been circumscised?

I had to look that one up to make sure you weren't taking the piss.

A whole firm based on some silly superstition? Wow!
Kosher, Shmosher—What's the Difference?

You've heard the word kosher, but did you know it literally means "fit to eat"? For more than 100 years, Hebrew National® has followed strict dietary law, using only specific cuts of beef that meet the highest standards for quality, cleanliness, and safety—so artificial flavors, colors, fillers, and by-products simply don't make the cut.

From YouTube
The new campaign for Hebrew National hot dogs was directed by the online comedy phenomenon behind the new HBO series Funny or Die, Jeremy Konner, and is designed to move consumers beyond the word Kosher, inviting them to try the all-beef hotdog that is so amazingly good, every bite is an experience to be savored. In fact, Hebrew National hot dogs are perfect for any person or family that enjoys delicious 100% butcher-quality cuts of pure Kosher beef.

The campaign features a series of four new television spots highlighting voice over from TV's original caped crusader Adam West. Two additional spots will launch later in this summer.
Adam West has since moved on to more voice acting, such as cartoons; most recently playing a caricature of himself as Mayor Adam West, on the animated sitcom 'Family Guy'



He has great delivery and his voice has a natural comedic quality to it: you can almost take him seriously except that he sounds like he's going slightly senile. :D

Big shout out to the Welsh rugby boys on twitter I asked if they would send messages to Xeno & DIL-tb for their wedding which I could print and put in a card loads of them have already replied with really nice messages hopefully a few of the celebs I follow will be as generous.

Xeno has NO idea I'm doing this and best man will read out the messages on the big day - can't wait to see his face when he realises just who is wishing him well. :D

And our tickets have just arrived for Wales vs England on the Saturday following the wedding :D
If you can keep your head while those around you are losing theirs, you may have misjudged the situation.
