The hills are alive with my mobile lifestyle

Oh, the havoc that my friends and I could have wrought with photo-sharing and blog tools back when we were living in Japan... Oh well, at least our spiritual descendants are putting these to good use. I agree with anenglishmaninosaka that this ad campaign from Vodafone, touting the virtues of the family calling plan just launched last month, probably pushes the boundaries of credulity, and as for me, I can't get away from associations with other images which make this even harder to take seriously. Surely a hired gun gaijin film star (a pouting Nicole Kidman?) might have been a better bet?
