I still have no idea what the Ad Council does, or why they do it, but I really don’t care after watching this hilarious PSA commercial promoting arts education. Whatever it is they do, as long as it features a wall-smashing Johannes Brahms distributing a hearty Guten TAAAAAG!, I’m sold.

UPDATE: As Susan Jacobsen (apparently of the actual Ad Council) points out in the comments, the Ad Council is an important non-profit organization dedicated to the creation and distribution valuable public service announcements tackling a wide range of issues, many of which have become iconic campaigns over the years. This info is for those of you people who didn’t already know. You know who I’m talking about. For shame.
I, for one, am absolutely thrilled that someone from the Ad Council actually took time to read, and comment on, It Makes Your Nose Tickle. This makes the first IMYNT reader who isn’t A) a family member, or B) myself.

The Ad Council is a national non-profit organization founded in 1942 to impact social change through communications programs that make a positive difference. Campaigns like Only You Can Prevent Forest Fires, Friends Don’t Let Friends Drive Drunk and A Mind is a Terrible Thing to Waste are only a few of the many iconic PSA campaigns that have had a positive impact on American society. All campaigns are sponsored by national non-profit organizations or federal governement agencies. They are developed pro bono by the nation’s leading ad agencies and run in donated advertising time and space. Last year, the media donated nearly $2 billion in ad space and time to Ad Council campaigns. For more information and to view all of our current PSAs, please visit http://www.adcouncil.org
