Funny Luxembourgish ad campaign for an online phone book
A Luxembourgish ad company made a very funny campaign for an online phone number directory.

Here some examples:
Nicolas Sarkozy the President of the French Republic (in French)
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vw8gT0_cunw

Translation:
"Our next candidate: Nicolas. So Nicolas, what are the four things you need every day?"
"Well, my wife off course, isn't she pretty, is she? Then a big watch, very very expensive. Heels. And of course yellow.lu when I want to call bankers in Luxembourg"
"Do it like the Lulus (French nickname for Luxembourgers), type yellow.lu."
"Yellow.lu, the online phone directory for the Grand Duchy of Luxembourg."

Jean "Jang" Asselborn the Luxembourgish Minister of Foreign Affairs (in Luxembourgish)
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=P0pp8YDulGU&feature=related
Translation:
"Our next candidate: Jang. Jang tell us four things you need every day!"
"Yes, well, of course my bicycle, my cooking stick, my cell phone and therefore evidently yellow.lu."
"You find it immediately on yellow.lu.
"Yellow.lu, your phone book on the internet."



There are about 10 more of these ads, featuring for the Grand Duke, the Grand Duchess, Jacques Santer (former Prime Minister and former President of the European Commission) and other people famous here in Luxembourg. Best thing, as for Jean Asselborn for example, is that their voices are extremely well imitated,



Finally I want to point out that I don't want to make advertising for yellow.lu, pt.lu (the site of the postal service) has also an excellent phone directory.
