Geico Cavemen

I don't know who Geico's ad agency is, and I don't know what demographic they are trying to hit, but I will fess up and admit that I love Geico ads. One of my favorite series has been the one with the cavemen. Yesterday's article about cracking the Neanderthal DNA code inspired me to go to YouTube and hunt down the entire series. So here, for your viewing pleasure, are the ones I could find in what I believe is chronological order. My favorites would have to be the third one in the restaurant and the last with the talking heads.

    You made my day with these links! [Now if I can only figure out a way to change the dialogue to mock Louisville my life would be complete.]
