Yay for superbowl commercials!

Yes, I really do watch it just for the commercials. Bayer had its first superbowl commercial this year -- the one for Aleve with Leonard Nimoy. (I successfully guessed what the gimmick was going to be based on a very slight hint on the in-house newsletter description.) But what just made my day was hearing Welsh spoken during a superbowl commercial. (Beer commercial: people from lots of different countries saying the equivalent of "cheers" while raising a glass. I didn't notice what brand it was for -- it gave the impression of being a a promotion of beer in general as a concept.)

Heh. Yeah, that matches my expectation. :) I suspect that learning Welsh will be on the (very) long list of "cool things I'd like to learn someday".
I'm more interested in learning Welsh than Dutch, although my Dutch heritage is a lot more clear and recent.
