Actually I really liked the ad where the MBA kid with his feet up reading
(IIRC) the WSJ says to his boss something to the effect that the company
needed/had to be on the internet. The boss looks puzzled and says "Why". I

I thought it highly effective because it was the one question non-one seemed
to be asking during the rise of the internet as a business tool.
