monkey wards (we couldn't pronounce Montgomery)...that brings back memories.

I remember those crappy little cartoon radios. I don't think mine was Disney, but must have been made by the same company because it was the same strap. Yosemite Sam Maybe? All those retro ads crack me up.

The tissue dispenser with radio... now that brings back some memories.

I wondered where your love of music stemmed from.

Now you know the secret!

I had an aunt I used to spend time with in the summers as a kid. There were always gadgets and such everywhere around there. The toilet paper radio was one of them. Pretty sure there was a shower radio like that too.

If you scroll down through that ad, one of my favorite lines are: 'Dramatic prints display vitality'.

I like to make my own music in the shower. The moist air keeps my vocal chords lubricated for maximum volume. That way the whole house can enjoy it!

I want that Pizza hut pizza oven. That thing looks awesome.

We are so behind the times. When are we going to start making rc parts out of "lightweight Cordahide"? Looks like the trademark has been abandoned. Does anyone else smell a money making goldmine?
