I enjoyed last years' VW ad with the little boy dressed as Darth Vader several times and would be happy to watch it again today. I remember enjoying some of the Budweiser ads. And there are others that I dislike so much that I am wearing out the Fast Forward button on my DVR remote.Bill G.https://www.blogger.com/profile/04142837879175561312noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5995532066584316410.post-71588031278200912712013-01-29T21:20:52.277-06:002013-01-29T21:20:52.277-06:00Forgot to add:

The man in front of me noticed and asked if I was all right and I said, " Yes, and I haven't even been drinking; it's too early for that," to which he replied, "Oh, but it's 5:00 o'clock somewhere."<br /><br />Stan J @ 2:39 - Are you the one who made Linda Blair's head spin in The Exorcist? -:)Irish Misshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12527047622731333304noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5995532066584316410.post-44337590178801433622013-01-29T18:19:27.870-06:002013-01-29T18:19:27.870-06:00Thank you Bruce and Gail for a fun puzzle!

Fast for me.<br /><br />I learned Yegg from doing CW's. I had never heard (or used) the word before. <br /><br />I thought that Pooling vehicle/car, Fir feller/axe, and Nora was his mistress/Asta were the fun clues for today. <br /><br />I'm glad, Argyle, that your stress test was uneventful, but the waiting to hear results is always more stress than the test sometimes.<br /><br />I was on a treadmill this afternoon, but at the gym, so I could program it to my liking.

Fingers crossed for good news on your test. Haven't seen YEGG in a while. Was thinking of car lease restrictions before NO PETS appeared. Other than that, pretty much WEES about the solve. Lucina and Misty, agree with you both on Sally Fields as Mary Todd Lincoln. She portrayed MTL as much more than the crazy lady we usually see. She was so complex -- a feisty, fragile, intelligent, vain and vivacious steel magnolia. (Apologies for any typos...sending from my phone, and I'm lousy at the touchscreen keyboard.).
