70s Hit Parade

Over at Monkeys for Helping, they've been enjoying some 1970's TV commercials (enjoy this concerned Hostess Mom who serves fruit pie on a plate).

This sent me into the Brain Attic in search of my cigarette jingles, which have mostly collapsed to dust beside my red Mary Janes and this freakish thing I just got over. (oh, I smell it's rubber head, just looking at it.)

Catchy. On a 6 year old, especially charming.

But all great things must end, and I learned from the google-nets that the last commercial aired during the tonight show, Jan 1, 1971. I guess I missed it.

Also, from Otto, this just in: cigarettes aren't just cool (they are soooo cool), they are good for you, AND ... they make you damned good-looking.
Yes, you read that correctly.

She totally will, that skank.
