    The Frieshe Vlag spot would never make it onto basic cable. Most of the others, well, they're not as risque today as they would have been 10, 15 years ago.

    Now you know one of the reasons why I spent nearly ten years in Europe. Commercials like that, and the bare breasted women on billboards.
