Comcast Town! (not World)
You may have seen this appealing commercial for Comcast. I saw it on a fuzzy tv while I was in New Jersey and liked it but couldn't remember what product it was advertising. (which wouldn't please the client.) Then a friend sent me a link.
From extra info in his email I ended up at Comcast world, where they have a nifty Flash app where you construct your own room, and can give dialogue lines to all the furniture. I set mine up as a musical chairs game, with each chair saying something, as well as the squirrel phone (yes that's what it is.)
It all works really well as you move things around, but I couldn't get the sign in to work for me, am still waiting for the approval email, and by this time I'm kind of sick of the whole thing. If the sign in doesn't work it suddenly erases everything you've created. Not fun. But it's nice to see an interactive piece like this, even if it is trying to sell you something and plugs into Facebook as part of their nefarious take over the world scheme. (just kidding, but they do urge you to hook it up to Facebook and all your friends.)
Still not sure what Comcast is but I guess it's like ATT and Verizon.
Oh, and here's a link to a picture of racetrack Rosie, the breakfast cook at Santa Anita, and a nice post about her birthday.

I want to be Rosie, reinvent myself as Rosie, as the therapeutic language would have it. What are the odds on that transformation?
Oh well. Comcast World is being
"is being refurbished for your future enjoyment."
Rosie is magnificent. Will you see her Friday?
We have Comcast in our region: it's internet and cable provider.
I mad a big mistake--it's comcasttown not world on the url-- I'm correcting it above.
Anonymous, you could start by visiting Rosie, not sure that guarantees you the roses with dollar leaves though.
