Here is ex-Python John Cleese in one of the most elaborate web ads ever. Who would think that you could come up with anything at all funny about using hard drives instead of tape to back up your data?

Cleese, that's who! (http://www.backuptrauma.com/video/default2.aspx) :D

Cheers! :bottle:

Taken from Al Lowe's Cyberjoke 3000™ (http://www.allowe.com/Humor/cj-main.htm):

Yesterday's John Cleese video generated a lot of attention. Several of you noticed Michael Dorn, who played Lt. Worf on Star Trek TNG, was one of the featured players. But CyberJokester Moishe wins the daily double! He found two hidden "bonus laughs." The first clue was a message in the IBT main hallway that read, "While taking a tour of the institute, see if you can find the hidden video clip." And he did. In Room 2 ("Diagnosis"), a mouse runs across the floor. As soon as it stops beneath the patient's foot, click it and you'll see the first bonus: Cleese giving a messed up "thank you" speech. The second bonus is easier (perhaps): a single frame (located where the time code counter reads 5:46.618) that belittles those who find it for having no life!

If you want to go back and look for these on your own, here's yesterday's link:

If you don't want to do it the hard way, here is direct link to the "thank you" video:
