Today, early [in fact I'm the 2nd one on the appointment list to be seen], I go in for my annual heart check-up with my electrophysiologist...
Wish me luck!!
_ _ _

...in the meantime, some Thursday Trash Talk for some laughs? Quite a while ago, I read this article that prompted quite a 'stir' in Yahooland and the comments, being that the company's logo was so ingeniously placed on the swimwear trunks of the olympic athlete. When I saw the photo** I personally have always appreciated British humor, and this shows to go, they do have a way with making the most of it. In fact, I would say, give this advertisement executive a pay raise for the clever way of promoting the company....you'll never look at British Gas without remembering this. I purposely kept the image large for the post so you can easily see the 'ad' clearly ...
...now for the fun part [you mean there is more fun other than the swim trunks? ---yes!!--- keep reading]....

My employer, the Gas Company here in Oklahoma, should consider something like this.
ReplyDeleteI'm sure it'll work for your gas company too.

ReplyDeleteThat ad is the best I've ever seen. The comments are hysterical
it was hilarious, both the 'ad' sense of humor AND the comments.
DeleteAnni that was hilarious. But not very well shaped for a swimmer. Good luck with your cardiology appt. Had mine early this month for a electrocardiogram and sonogram. It made me immediately go home and ride my exercycle 10 miles!! BTW, I blew off my stress test in August and never rescheduled...doctor never realized it!! I hate those things.
ReplyDelete...me too, me too Chuck. I hate those lousy stress tests. We have enough stress in a day's time without the assistance of those white coats!!
DeletePraying your check-up goes well.
ReplyDelete...thanks Denise. Every prayer helps.
DeleteGood luck at the doc's today.
ReplyDeleteI really had a good laugh today with the comments. Thanks for the laugh today!!!
Have a great weekend.
