FReeper Canteen~What's Your Beef?~September 29, 2005
September 28, 2005 | bentfeather/Canteen Crew

Posted on 09/28/2005 7:15:21 PM PDT by Soaring Feather

For the freedom you enjoyed yesterday...
Thank the Veterans who served in The United States Armed Forces.

Looking forward to tomorrow's freedom?
Support The United States Armed Forces today!

Good Morning TROOPS!!
What's your most detested TV Ad?
Some tv ads are really funny; for example, the Vonage ads crack me up, because they are so stupid.

Many TV ads are very irritating, I'm sure you agree.
Soooo, I ask the question of you "Where's the Beef" with you?

My particular bane is; A couple in their kitchen,
the happy wife is chopping veggies
hubby is at the table reading the paper, or day dreaming.
Mrs. takes the chopped veggies, dumps them into the garbage disposal, runs the motor to chop the veggies,
THEN she scoops out the minced mess and serves it to hubby!
Gads, this is gastly!

Okay, here's you chance to rant about your most detested TV Commerical.


Let's have some fun with this!
Post a picture (if you can find it), or tell us about your least favorite product.


Just a couple of goodies.
Birthday Anniversary.

1907 Gene Autry Tioga Tx, cowpoke/singer/actor/Calif Angels owner.

1922 Lizabeth Scott Scranton, Pa, actress (Dark City, Desert Fury)

On this day. 1963 Rolling Stones 1st tour (opening act for Bo Diddley & Everly Bros)


Beep Beep
I like Beep Beep, it allows me to FReep!

Since I never watch sports, except for hockey, I don't see any of those.

Thank You Soldier

Life without that of one who serves their country proud, freely,
and valantly would be a life void of love, dreams, freedom,
a life void of the many treasures so many of us call life.

Children, mates, cars, boats, planes, photos, books, stories,
smiles, all a part of life. To those of you who wear the uniform
of your country with pride today, and for those of you
who wore the uniform in days past, these few words go
out to you, and hope
they bring life in its fullness unto you and yours.

You gave of yourself, to protect and keep that
life which you had learned
and begun to love. You gave of your family, you gave of
your life, some came home, some never did, some live in our
memories, some in our tears, taken in life both young
and old, no score card to determine who went and who returned.

So accept these simple words of thanks.
Thank You...


                   


Deus vobiscum

I'm so glad this is the topic because I've been wanted to vent about this for months...I don't think they're running this commercial anymore, but for first six months of the year I couldn't put on the TV without seeing that horrible Sarah Jessica Parker singing "I ENJOY BEING A GIRL" for GAP. I literally threw things at the TV!

Good evening Night Owl and Ms Bentfeather!

What ads are just terrible? Can't name 'em. they drive me out to do other things....take out the garbage, sweep the kitchen, take a leak...just don't watch them.

There is, however, a commercial that is so good that I watch it every time and never recall the name of the product they're advertising. the one with two girls chatting up the new blinds in front of a window, while outside a hapless husband blows up the back yard BBQ and the dog runs around nuts. I love that ad but never get the message 'cause it's too good.
