Re: Commercials that make you cry

November 11 is Remembrance Day in Canada, where we remember those who've participated in wars (including those who lost their lives). Right before 11/11, there was a phone commercial where a 20-something guy calls his grandfather via cell phone back in Canada and tells Gramps that he's in France. Gramps asks him if "the girls were like I remembered" (or something to that extent) and how he used to love Paris. 20-something guy then tells his grandfather that he isn't in Paris, but in Dieppe (where a major battle was fought in WWII). As a history major, that commercial makes me tear up!!
Hmm....

Yeah that commercial is a tear jerker for people who know what it means. It's interesting to be watching the Leafs and then that commercial comes on.... room almost always goes silent.
