Classic commercials for extant products (Part 87)


Classics ads for products still sold, including: Florida Citrus, Glade, Maxwell House, Borden’s milk, Pampers, Dawn, Sugar Crisp, and a brand of booze. Gee whiz, that Sugar Crisp ad featuring “Friday” is weird, just weird. It had previously been rejected for inclusion in a previous volume, but I am running low on ads so it got included. These ads were drawn from the adviews section of the Internet Archive, a big section which constantly attributes ads to the wrong decade. Because of that I am not certain on the dates of these commercials.

La Grange by ZZ Top with lyrics! Please comment and rate!

LYRICS:

Rumour spreadin’ a-’round in that Texas town
’bout that shack outside La Grange
and you know what I’m talkin’ about.
Just let me know if you wanna go
to that home out on the range.
They gotta lotta nice girls ah.

Have mercy.
A haw, haw, haw, haw, a haw.
A haw, haw, haw.

Well, I hear it’s fine if you got the time
and the ten to get yourself in.
A hmm, hmm.
And I hear it’s tight most ev’ry night,
but now I might be mistaken.
hmm, hmm, hmm.

Ah have mercy.

MAR


Daylight wanes as sky becomes heavy. Isobars compress and warp; cross-sectioned onions on the nightly news. The coast awakens, transformed from the doldrums of summer. Warmth; a flickering memory, like those drawn upon for favourable conditions at half-forgotten spots. The ocean roars, resuming it’s age-old attack on the coastline in a relentless barrage of storm fronts. And so the hunt begins, chasing the nooks hidden from wind and seas. Schedule revolves around brief opportunities, better described as optimistic hunches. A goading carrot dangled, and ever so occasionally within reach. Winter chasing shapes on the fringes of the North Atlantic. A collections of moments captured along the way. Mar.
