"EEEEE-LECK-TRICITY costs less today you know....
Than it did many long years ago.....
A little Birdie told me so.....
CHEAP! CHEAP!
(Little Bill)"

- Jingle fron a commercial for Commonwealth Edison of Illinois, circa 1960.

(Little Bill was a bird whose body was a lightbulb. He was tragically killed in a freak "dust devil" acident when travelling in the Mojave Desert on vacation. He was just too high strung. The tension was more than he could bear.)
