I had no that idea the energy market is currently being deregulated.  This video has amazing background images.  They just keep on coming and coming.   ??? :-[ :'(

I thought this said "very unsettling porno."

I thought, oh, no, not the pterodactyls again.
I really don't appreciate your sarcastic, anti-comedy tone, Bro!

One nuance away from a Tim and Eric video. All that's needed is a freeze-frame, sound of chalk writing and the words:

Great job!

I love the background graphics, it looked like they had bought a CD of the video equivalent of clip art.

I jumped through parts of it, but I think he was talking about Enron when he mentioned a Texas-based company that had a billion in annual revenues with the rest of the economy wasn't growing. Convenient omission.

There's a Jerry Seinfeld look-a-like at around 3:18 in the movie!  Even creepier!

My favorite excerpt?

"Now, how would you like to tap..."

I needed go no further

"The Most Powerfull Way to Create Wealth"? Really? This video creeped me out. It's hard for me to believe that those are even real people.

That being said, I could see myself being seduced by the male speaker's expert hand gestures. 1:15-1:20 - that's craft. That's the only thing I can call it.
It ain't ego, it's my love for you.

Hmm, energy deregulation, Texas company... energy deregulation, Texas company, something about a Texas company and energy deregulation.

Didn't somebody already do that?  I think they made a movie about it or something.  It doesn't end as happily as this promo, though.
