Be honest...

How many of you wouldn't want to see Mutual of Omaha's Wild Kingdom crank back up?

It'd make my TIVO list if it ever did.

60 Minutes, Mutual Of Omaha's Wild Kingdom and the Wonderful World of Disney were THE shows for Sunday evening entertainment back when I was a kid.

When I was a kid, I hated Mutual of Omaha and Disney. I liked the "Creature Feature" sci-fi movies on Saturday night, the Three Stooges, and Eddie Haskell on Beaver.

In the end, people got tired of that shit and they stopped gathering any time they knew he would be there.

When you try to impress people by talking over their heads...And we all know that Jack's posts are WAY over the average GFYers head....Then you end up alienating yourself from the very people that you are trying to impress....And that's just plain fucking stupid.

I have no time in my life for stupid people no matter how smart they may be. LOL...Does that make sense? :1orglaugh

There's a lot of value in this Aaron, and I do thank you for it. As with most things, there's always a reason it's that way. Most of you may not know this, but English isn't my first language. I grew up in a Spanish-speaking home and had a bad acccent when I started school. To empower myself over the ridicule, I "suited up" in fancy, flowery speech. When I was a little kid, it made me feel stronger. But, now it just comes off as over-bearing. I apologize to any who have gotten such an impression. I'll keep working on it.

The black chick with big tits singing in the Wendy's "I Love Your Way" commercial gives me wood. I stop whatever I am doing to watch her bouncy bounce.

I like the marketing of how they're putting products into the backgrounds of TV shows and movies a lot more then they use too... when done right. It's very effective. Pringles has been doing that alot in the last year, and low an behold.... there's a couple cans of Pringles in my cupboard right now. On last weeks Sat Night Live they had a skit where they were in a sabboros pizza place. I'm sure that was paid for, and slice is sounding pretty good. Other then that, not much get's me to stop my DVR. I fastforward through them all.

The best commercial of the year, in my opinion, is the Carlton Draught advert.

i guess that depends what you're trying to do with your intelligence. it seems most things are worth a lot less than they could be if nobody understands them but you -- there is value in figuring out, but more in explaining and helping others to use.
