Remember the older commercials, based on my age that would be in 1960's and 1970's.

Wow... there's so many funny ones, but these are a few that come to mind. Anyone remember Euell Gibbons and the Post Grapenuts commercial, ("Ever eat a pine tree?"). Or about the Alka Selzter ("Mama Mia!") commercial? And of course, the Hai Karate commercial where the lady gets all excited when the guy shows up at her door for a date wearing Hai Karate aftershave and he goes Kung Fu on the furnitue...

Forgot about this one. Years ago I remember watching Nickelodeon with my kids and they had this short commercial about Flatulence, which at the time we all busted out laughing every time they showed it. Just watched it again on You Tube and it brought back some memories of the past that I miss so very much...

Well, I'm not so sure I should even bring this up, but my wife of 26 years passed away a few years ago, and my 16 year old son Taylor, passed away last year. September 11, 2011 to be exact. It's sooo hard to lose your family and when I see things, or hear songs that are reminders of the past, it hurts in a way that I can't even begin to describe, especially this time of year! Take care Rossboss...

I do miss the Miller Lite "Less Filling" vs. "Taste Great" with sports jocks.

They were pretty good.

Remember hearing the story when everyone was waiting for Rodney Dangerfield to show up for a shoot. They were pissed when Dangerfield showed up. Rodney broke it in classic style, hung over and all. He addressed another sports figure that was there for the shoot, Ray Mancini. He said, "Hey Ray, I was with your sister last night. Now I know why they call her Bang Bang."
