You're a pistol, Charles! I wasn't able to access the video you're referring to, so I can only imagine! Brian

H-H-H-HAR! ! ! Yes, it DOES, as a matter of fact... Where can I get some of that 'Dead On'? I think I need it now! Nice concrete work, Chuck, and it probably was. Thanks for sharing the pain! Est : ]

I can see you're gunning for the ad agency that dared to air such an infuriating commercial! We call it 4Head over here and the ads are equally dire! (Btw, didn't know you were such an accomplished artist..?) This poem is bang on! jz :)

This baby just hit the top 40 chart; climbing with a bullet. Really is high calibre stuff that's sure to trigger mass hysteria. Glad to see you taking aim at a new target audience. Smokin'! The name is Gunn, Greg Gunn.

In answer to your question...YES! This commercial makes me want to kill myself and shoot the TV as well.....but I'd better do that in reverse order...oh, now I have a headache. Charles..you are not only a great poet, but a darn good artist! Barb

Wow. Your creativity is certainly something to be envied. I wonder how that woman can live with that voice of hers, or worse, how can her family live with it?
