i just saw a commercial that featured "everybodys happy nowadays" by the buzzcocks. it was for the aarp. this is worse than using "lust for life" to sell mutual funds.

Actually, we all thought it was pretty cool in the discussion several weeks ago.

There's some instrumental version of Violent Femmes' Blister In The Sun out there. A pizza ad? Or chips? I can't remember.

I actually ended up meeting Steve Garvey of the buzzcocks about 3 months ago. It was pretty cool.

Bottom line: Buzzcocks are geezers. It's apropo. But when I saw them 10 years ago, they still rocked harder than most bands half their age.

I think the AARP thing is funny.

And it's a Wendy's ad for a triple cheeseburger. Not that I was paying attention, or anything...

I thought Lust for Life was for a cruise line... "get out there" the hook line spoken by a raspy lesbian outdoorsy voice
