Plowing straight ahead come what may |
...one more time I’m going to go to the emu farm outside of Crossville TN and stomp on some emu chicks until they call the cops...now I feel better  ...this should probably be in “what’s your deal”...sorry ‘bout that...but it is on TV ad nauseam  ******************************************************** "we've gotta roll with the punches, learn to play all of our hunches Making the best of what ever comes our way Forget that blind ambition and learn to trust your intuition Plowing straight ahead come what may And theres a cowboy in the jungle" Jimmy Buffet | ||

I'm fairly sure some of these companies don't want us to use their services. _____________________________________________________ Sliced bread, the greatest thing since the 1911. | |||

I flash back to around 2000 when the emu scam cratered in Texas and we were out in Central TX hunting and 2 emus came walking down the rural county road after someone let them go and I had a .270 in within reach and was wondering, at 75 yards, how much of a feather explosion a 130 grain bullet would do to one of them. I passed and went back to my Jameson. | |||

Car insurance commercials are the worst. How do companies possibly believe we will use/buy their services when they have stupid advertising? Doesn't that reflect on how stupid the company is? I am baffled. And Joe Namath pitching for Medicare benefits that you have to pay to get!This message has been edited.

There's a local car dealership that advertises their "one dime down" deal all the time. It's seriously on every radio commercial break. They have this obnoxious screechy whiny woman with a Jersey accent that makes me want to rip my radio out of the dash every time it comes on. Do they not realize that crap like this guarantees I will never give them my business? I'd walk everywhere before I bought a car from those people. | |||

I hate to break it to you, but that "one dime down" commercial must be syndicated, as it plays everywhere. The only thing that changes is the name of the dealership. Highly annoying. But to a certain demographic, being able to get a new car, even if you're upside down on your current vehicle, for only a dime, must be very appealing. It's never for a Mercedes or Audi, it's always for a Kia. Thus the metric system did not really catch on in the States, unless you count the increasing popularity of the nine-millimeter bullet. - Dave Barry "Never go through life saying 'I should have'..." - quote from the 9/11 Boatlift Story (thanks, sdy for posting it) | |||

I don't think there's been a decent car commercial since Joe Isuzu. My daughter can deflate your daughter's soccer ball. | |||

Earlier today on Fox News I saw the emu in sidecar version, and to make it much worse Brian Kilmeade had to cut off Rep Dan Crenshaw for the stupid commercial! | |||

I don't mind the Emu. Everyone recognizes it and other ads like it or not. Sounds like an effective ad campaign to me. _________________________ OH, Bonnie McMurray! | |||

I love the emu, especially the one when it's in the sidecart eating bugs. It's ALL THEIR OTHER stupid ads I can't stand. I think they are aiming at idiots (who don't understand concepts lime gap insurance, foe example). Fear God and Dread Nought Admiral of the Fleet Sir Jacky Fisher | |||
