Subject: Windsurfer commercial

Hi everybody,
hopefully not too long before the season starts up again.

Anyone remember that commercial with a windsurfer (Angela Cochran?) looping
through a wheat field? Well it won some advertising award. Some info and a
.mov file of the ad can be found at:

http://www.cnn.com/SHOWBIZ/9702/06/best.ads/index.htm (info)
http://www.cnn.com/SHOWBIZ/9702/06/best.ads/wheatsurfer.mov (the video)

One of my favorite ads of all time. Gets me fired up to learn to loop. I
figure if she can loop in a wheat field, then surely I could do it on a good
5.0 day at Third.
