ohmygoshohmygoshohmygosh!!!

V'07, I think sometimes my whole life is passing before my eyes on You Tube.

Hey, maybe Judy will make a video for us.

And won't she be surprised when she logs on later and sees what is planned for her shopping trip finale. My dress will pale in comparison.

Hey Chels,

Advertising is so much fun to hear about from an insider. Thank you.

Was there ever one where Joey would slink around on the mattress itself or would that have been not allowed at the time?

And re. the history of advertising, do you know anything about some magazine ads for Springmaid sheets I think it was. They are from before you were working in advertising I bet. I have only heard about them but supposedly they were quite steamy for their day. The theme was around an Indian Princess type. One of the ads supposedly featured her lovah lying across the bed and the caption was, "A buck well spent on my Springmaid sheets." And there were others equally risque for their time supposedly. Now they would just be considered un-pc.

OK, Chels, am I making that one up? I cannot even remember where I heard it but it was years ago. And Chels, you look way too young to have been at it in 1960, but I sure hope you are watching "Mad Men." I would think you would love it.

And I have to get out of here bc I could talk about advertising all day. It has always fascinated me.

So Chels, maybe you and uu can make a comeback mattress commercial. Wouldn't that be great! I love TOTV. Too much fun though and I look in way too often.

Well, I must be off, Mr. Boomer is ready to leave. (The house not me. At least I don't think so. I guess I had better get off this :edit: computer and go find out.)

Boomer
