a stack of money with eyes, a gecko, and a karaoke singer walk into a bar . . .

on the rare occassions the tv is on (sporting events usually), and a geico commercial comes on she will come from a room on the opposite side of the house to watch the cavemen, gecko, or stack of money with fascination. when they actually say "geico", she falls out laughing, running around saying, "papa! they said 'geico!' that's so funny! that lizard is my friend!"

cute! I hadn't seen that video, pretty clever. I prefer the cavemen to the gecko, but the money stack is kind of funny too.

Isn't the eyes on the stacks of money the same eyes in the Geico's Gecko?
