I must still be on the 'good' list, as I didn't receive one of these for Christmas.
For my readers on dial-up, it's a Snuggie made out of a ginormous ShamWow. Because it's so absorbent, you'll never have to leave your couch again. Eww!
PS: In attempting to be clever, I lost some stuff while updating my blog. It will probably be a few days before I track everything down again so I can replace it.

Have you called her?
Sorry about the condition of the first two pictures. The pamphlet is part of the stuff that belonged to my late grandmother and none of her old cookbooks and papers were stored properly.
Do you think we should tell him that she's right behind him? Perhaps he knows that already since the two phone receivers are connected by the same cord.
So you haven't bought a gift yet for your mother? How about a snazzy new phone? ( Click to enlarge to read about phone technology in 1975!)
Here's a great gift to go along with her new "telephone answering set". *laughs* You're going to have the rap song stuck in your head like I do!
These "reach out" commercials always got to me. I can remember watching TV with Mama Hairball and we'd look at each other and both be crying when these came on. *sniff*
Happy Mother's Day to all of my readers who are mothers!
Whoot Shimmy Shimmy Whoot!

Designer Snuggies for all!!
I am obviously not watching nearly enough TV to have missed this wonderful development in Snuggie technology. Whoot!
Wookies back in '78 were rocking their Snuggies!! Advance it to 4:24 to see the Snuggie content.
If you prefer to see the whole thing in all its glory, here you go. The original commercials are included which is kinda fun. At about 42:00 there's a commercial for the ILGWU that I remember very well.
Hat tip to the folks at Ridiculous Infomercial Review for this important Snuggie update.

Hilarious products advertised on the Tee-Vee
Thanks to the Ridiculous Infomercial Review Blog for some of these!
Gee, we'll just spell out the name and that will fix everything. LOL
Boy, I'm sure glad I'm not golfing with these guys! That peeing in the golf club is way disturbing.
Why do I think some company had a warehouse full of metal lazy Susans they needed to unload?
If it rips, can you patch it with some duct tape?
I am so 12.
The people trying to work at their desks while using this is priceless!
Can I wear my Slim-Suit, sit on my Aerobic Body Shaper in my Hawaii Chair and use my Facial Flex all at once? I am gonna look sooo hawt!! Then I'm getting in my car with my bear, my golf club, and my fish deboner and have myself a par-tay! Whoot!

Old Commercials
Yesterday, I was over at Kitchen Retro checking out a vintage ad for the radio microphone from 1948. I wasn't alive back then but, it reminded me of Mr. Microphone from the 70's.
I had a Mr. Microphone. *snort* I thought I was really stylin' with my feathered hair, velour shirt, tight jeans, old school roller skates, and yelling out Dyn-O-Mite! on my Mr. Microphone. Whoot!
Raise your hand if you or your family ever owned one of these? *raises hand*
Okay, who had shag carpet like that? * raises hand again* Ours was green instead of brown though.
I miss Nancy Walker. I loved the snarky characters she portrayed like Mildred on McMillan and Wife. (For those that are interested, season one is available on DVD and if you have Netflix, you can watch it and the other seasons -some of the seasons are incomplete though- via their instant watch feature.)
*snort* I love the smell of advertising propaganda early in the morning. If you want a happy marriage you better get you some Bounty!
This poor woman should just pull an Elvis on the clothes and be done with it.
I still enjoy the music of the 70's.
This commercial obviously did its job as I am still using their tag line after all these years.
I remember how the "beef lady" became an instant sensation because of these commercials.

What?!?
Elbows need love too! Where's the special elbow wipes?
Sorry the picture is not the best, I was trying not to attract attention with my camera. Some stores get huffy if you shoot pictures of their products and then roll around on the floor laughing like a hyena.
