"Bardahl Did It Again!"
I'm continually amazed at how powerful
advertising is.
Did we pay closer attention because TV as a medium was new back then and we were fascinated with it?
Maybe so.
But some of those early commercials are still bright in my memory.
"Bardahl did it again" is one of 'em.
"Hey Mo-om! Oh Mo-om! Here comes the O-mar man!"
"I LOVE Bosco, that's the drink for me!"
"Be young and fair, and debonair... Be sociable... have a Pepsi!"
If I could just rid my memory of these OLD ditties I might be able to remember where I put my keys for safe-keeping.
More brain cell usurpers here.

Clint didn't remember the commercial but when he saw the valves he thought, "Bardahl"! SCARY
Now a question for you and all Vandy's Kids. Does anyone remember Erterk Mehmet? I asked a certain classmate and he said I should run to the nearest Dementia Clinic! I know I remember that name from somewhere...I thought it was CGHS but maybe I've lost it for sure!
Bo
No joy with me, Bo.
Maybe Purdue?
Het Bo, I remember Stimey Wilson but I don't remember . . . whats his name . . . . I thought dementia was when . . . . . . . oh well . . . never mind

P.S. t's are sometimes mistaken for y's in my world
unanimous
Speaking of old commercials, one that has stuck in my mind is "It's Shake and Bake, and I helped".
AND, I can't believe I ate the whole thing!
OR It's a speecy, spicy meatball.
Bo

Bo, I remember S & S, also the old bryl cream little dab will do ya, the falstaff "old Pro" and Elwood?, I think Jim Bacuss was the voice for the old pro football coach. Anyway, of course we all remember the Burma Shave signs, Mail Pouch barns, you'll wonder where the yellow went whn you brush your teeth with __________?
dj
