Pointless Digressions

Wednesday, October 12, 2011

Television commercials for products we would rather not think about while dipping into our bag of Fritos:

-- Adult diapers

-- Cold sore remedies

-- Septic tank removal systems

We have to go now, to watch Pat Boone deliver our favorite walk-in bathtub commercial. Splish splash!

LYNDON GROVE: Pointless Digressions is the on-line extension of a radio series commissioned sometime in the last century by the Vancouver radio station AM-1040 (now Team 1040, an all-sports broadcaster). The mini-programs were written and voiced by Lyndon Grove, whose ambition, he said, was "to digress my way through life." Grove describes himself as "a media Gypsy," having spent vast amounts of time in radio, television, newspapers, magazines, advertising, public relations, film and live performance. Pointless Digressions is his self-help therapy project. For detailed biography, send self-addressed stamped envelope stuffed with wads of cash.
