Golden Age of Advertising

Shakespeare could write a jingle for Eggos that would really make you think.  I think he was best known for his slogan for “Murphy’s Bloodletting.”  How many monkeys, and how many years, do you think would be needed to come up with that?  Thank god, just like Barry Manilow, he graduated to write his own Copacabana…The Two Gentlemen of Verona.

What’s funny about the man portrayed in this comic is that shortly after this, he appeared on Jay Leno with his collection of “amusingly shaped shits.”  Jay got huge laughs when he pretended to take a bite of the log that looked like Lindsay Lohan.  It probably tasted better than the real Lindsay.

Instead of inducting “ground breakers” like Abba, Genesis, Jimmy Cliff and the Hollies, it’s time for the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame to recognize the genius of the True King of Rock-N-Roll and induct him.  Or at least enshrine some part of his, uh leavings.

SesameWalker

Just another attempt to “hip it up for the kids” gone wrong.  I always thought Sesame Street was supposed to be innocent and educational.  However, there are other disturbing images to be found that show that maybe there should be a gossip magazine just for muppets.

What if Hamilton and Burr used weed?

CheechAndKong


I read that Cheech and Chong reconciled recently.  Which raised a few questions.

  1. Cheech and Chong were estranged?
  2. Was this some kind of East Coast / West Coast Pot-head beef?
  3. How did Cheech find time from his busy “Nash Bridges” filming to reconcile?
  4. When can we expect the long delayed sequel to “Up in Smoke?”  Will it be better than “Godfather III?”
  5. Can a Jerry Lewis / Dean Martin reconciliation be far behind?  (In Hell)
  6. Cheech and Chong are still alive?
