Please note the Gadget on the left called “Share it”.
If you are entertained by this Foolishness (or one in the future), use “Share it” to tell your friends or enemies about it on Facebook or Twitter.
There is a Federal Law which stipulates that after any commercial is shown 72 times it cannot be shown again.
No matter how wonderful, annoying or informative a particular commercial is the law very sternly mandates it must be cast onto the Scrapheap of History after the magic number of 72 Showing is reached.
If you are relying on the newspapers for your Olympic News, you might have the mistaken impression that your fellow Americans spent the prior night watching a ton of sporty happenings on their TVs.
To be more precise I should have pecked out above, “spent the prior night and day watching”. Instead of diligently making their widgets it has been reported that too many American workers are watching the Olympics while at work.
You know what’s next, don’t you. There is going to be a nationwide Widget Shortage and we are all going to suffer those repercussions for a long time to come.
Getting back to the silly paragraph above the above prior two foolish paragraphs...
Commercials are reigning supreme. The advertisers just love the Olympics because so many of the sporty events are so short in duration they can quickly cut away for more commercials. They are covering us up with commercials and that 72 Maximum Showings Number is fast approaching for many of them.
In Volleyball the commercials are usually so long that we get back to the volleying after having missed two points.
I just looked up from where I am pecking out this bit of Foolishness to see a foot race where they cut away to the commercial just before the race had finished. I must be mistaken...Or am I?
Remember the Subject of this Foolishness...Or Is It? ... You Going To Be Sorry When All The Commercials Are Gone?
Do you get my drift? Not only are we about to run out of Widgets but we are going to run out of Commercials because of the 72 Times Shown and No More Federal Law. It’s going to be awful!
I’ve changed my mind. It’s not going to be awful. Actually a shortage of commercials is the Good News. The Bad News is they are going to make more.
Would I kid u?
