Ed mutes commercials. He will not listen to someone telling us to buy, even cool stuff. Sometimes I mind the silence in between show segments, but most often I don't care. It's not as if I'd get jingles -- remember the one that told us all to have a nice holiday, with C a N a D a, D r Y, Canada Dry, the best you can buy is Canada Dry? It put me in the mood for Christmas! Now I’m just not hearing stuff about how sick you can get taking medicines that pharmaceutical companies tell us we should take anyway.
So this morning, as I dusted off Mister Red and looked up at the blue sky, I automatically hummed -- Everything's better with Blue Bonnet on it!
I like the sound of those words together, in the way that I've always liked how "grammarian" rhymes with "Hungarian" in My Fair Lady. When the skies suddenly become sparky blue after a period of prolonged gray, Blue Bonnet on it seems spot on.
glad you rode Mr R today...isn't it amazing how sun and warmth and blue skies just make the day...it's magic, i think!
ReplyDelete"My beer is Rheingold the dry beer ..." When you mute the commercials, you have to watch them to know when to turn the sound back on. If you leave them on, you can read the paper while you're waiting.
