Yes!

I think cigarette commercials are some of the more fascinating now.

There's really a musical about Anne Frank?

DR TCB, I tried to find some "white noise" on youtube so that you could hear what it sounds like. But truthfully I don't find that any of the videos with white noise are that close.

Just picture a big fan. It sort of makes that kind of noise, but not exactly.  It just basically blocks out most sounds and is very soothing to sleep to.  I also love it for reading. It blocks out noises from other rooms (tv) or outside.  I've been sleeping a lot better since I got this machine. I absolutely love it.

TOD - Some of my most memorable commercials were for Faygo, a Detroit product.

Special faves are The Faygo Kid and UpTown, both from 1950, and Faygo Remembers, 1970.

Several phrases from the 1950 spots were a regular part of my Dad's lexicon:

"Which way did he go, which way did he go?"
"Blow, or Go"
"I'm too pooped to participate."

My trip to the pharmacy went well. I waited forever for a return bus, an M11, which was driven by a total ass; he sped past me before he stopped the bus, so I had a nice walk to board it, and, since he hadn't stopped at the curb, which makes the step up not so high, I had a major and rather painful climb to board. When he got to my stop, he slammed on the brakes and I nearly lost my balance and fell. I guess he figured the faster he made his route the sooner he could go home.  I hope he dies on the way.  New York life is unpleasant enough without having problems with the employees your taxes are paying to be helpful.
