Barry,
DS> I wonder where the little booger got gas for his car...since he
DS> did save a bunch of money on his car insurance. <G>
BM> If he's smart he would have gotten his gas at a low price with other
BM> savings like those with grocery store ponts!
For what they charge with the premiums, he should've had the money!!
The insurance company commercials are getting really bizarre...
1) Allstate -- Mayhem (my favorite). You can find several of them on
YouTube. I especially like the one as "the mean little kid", throwing
a temper tantrum in the back of the car, and throwing stuff everywhere,
screaming "MOMMY!! MOMMY!! MOMMY!! MOMMY!!". <G>
2) Progressive -- One they have now where "things aren't normal", as
these females are ending their conversation thread with "da", as if
they were Swedish. Now, I've got a craving for those meatballs. :P
3) Liberty Mutual -- These are now dealing with Doug and his emu.
The 2 that come to mind are:
A) On the plane, he is asked if he has a special permit for his
"assistive bird".
B) On a workout, the exercise instructor says "Pick up the pace,
bird legs!!". Doug says "Don't talk to Lema like that!!"...to which,
she replies "I'm talking to you!!" <G>
BM> Must have been an undesireable human if both are trying to keep on
BM> Earth!
It makes you wonder.
I love garden salads, but they have to be made with iceberg lettuce.
I can't eat romaine or leaf lettuce. But, the iceberg lettuce has a
large amount of fiber, as if I was drinking prune juice.
DS> ... Digital watch owners, your days are numbered!
BM> That reminded me: at the store I wore an analog watch -- bring up the
BM> arm, glance at the time, done. No buttons to push. Would get asked
BM> what time it was and I soon learned most had no concept of 'quarter of' and
BM> the like, so had to say "8:45". Then for some reason that also created a
BM> problem, as did "8:10" and even "8:05"; the 'marker' times (where the clock
BM> digits are or would be) seemed not be be giving a
BM> sense of accuracy like a digital display would, even though both analog and
BM> digital times have "8:15". Ended up learning to lie a bit: if
BM> really-truely 8:15 would say '8:16' and never be questioned like I had been
BM> with '8:15'.
Tell them it's "daytime" or "nighttime", and be done with it...but,
they might say "No [kidding], Sherlock!!" :P
Daryl
BM> ... Q: How long does take to put on a pair of underwear?
BM> A: A brief second.
That Depends if you try to do it with your shoes on. (Yeah, TMI). <G>
Daryl
... How do you tell when you're out of invisible ink?
