Need a hand identifying an advert from about 10 years ago. Anyone remember an ad featuring a lumberjacky-type dude armwrestling a bear, then a bird with massive knockers walks in and something else happens... Ring a bell? -------------------- sweet

This is bugging me now... I'm saying microwave burgers or kitchen towels. Dammit, I can see the advert in my mind, but all Google turns up is that dam 'Man fights a bear for a salmon' advert...
