Rowdy Pocky CM for a sleepy Thursday morning
by Dale North, 10/15/2009

I'm behind on work and seriously lacking in sleep. Being a blogger for a living is fun, but when it gets hectic, sometimes you need a little pick-me-up.

For me, it was this new Pocky commercial. Look, I like Pocky, but it has never made me dance. This commercial, though -- it's infectious. I love how it opens: When the girl starts dancing, the surrounding salary men look at her like she's crazy. She is, though, as she goes jabbing Pocky sticks in people's faces, and then does a synchronized dance. 

This Pocky world is a far cry from my cold and sleepy office. I think I'm going to watch it again.
