Chris Uggen posted this video a few days ago:
I added a link to it on my daily links list where Liz Losh saw it and then included it in a blog post “Just Say Know” discussing all sorts of parody videos and sites related to drug use including the artist-created fictional drug Web site Havidol, and this video:
These are some great parodies. Work in the field of health communication looks at the effects of health campaigns, but tends to focus on serious ones. I wonder what type of work may be going on in the domain of parody viral videos online for similar purposes.

Hey, were the musicians in that second video the Austin Lounge Lizards? In any case, you should probably give credit or a link to who ever did it in your main post. They deserve it.
