   poor joel. what a horrible predicament. my sister always suggests the same song to get things like that out of my head. its, "lets hear it for the boy". guaranteed to work.
   ive had the tender crisp bacon cheddar ranch song stuck in my head since the commercial came out. (what song is that from?) its driving me crazy!!!

   pk: I'm with you on the tender crisp song. It's from "Big Rock Candy Mountain," a bluegrass classic. That's the craziest commercial ever.

   Great, now I have Let's hear it for the boy stuck in my head.How do I get that out? If I remember things correctly, the jingle I used to get stuck in my head was for Pyramid Pizza in Lawrence. It was the phone number jingle. I didn't mind that so much. Right now though, it makes me hungry for pizza!!

   I have had a rough week, so I came home and promply fell asleep watching Foster's Home for Imaginary Friends! Everyone has ran out on me tonight, so I am home on a Friday night ;) Thinking about running to Ltown and listening to some bands by myself. Now how loser is that!!

    has anyone spent any time near chicago or seen Wayne's World? we have empire to deal with as far as local commercials go. just like the pizza shuttle song, its for their phone number 588-2300. they added an 800 in front of it a couple years ago, but the original is in Wayne's World. just about the ONLY thing actually in Aurora at the time the movie was made. everything else either doesnt exist or is in a different suburb. but the jingle will make you want to "stick your finger in your eye and swirl it around"

    Threre are few good commercials. Now they put the horrible things in front of my movies. I hate them!

    Mentos commercials always caused me horrible pain. Combine a Mentos commercial with a Saturn commercial and I am sure that is a sign of the Apocolypse...

    I currently have the song "Total Eclipse of the Heart" stuck in my head. That's what I get for listening to the radio as I get ready in the morning...

    "Once upon a time I was falling in love... now I'm only falling apart..."
