The infomercials are getting out of hand. There has always been a certain amount of deception involved. Like, eighty percent or so. That’s OK. What’s gotten out of hand is who is hawking what.

“Hello, Charles Manson here, I think. Not real sure but sort of sure. Don’t leave your loved ones destitute if you die. What’s destitute mean? How come I can’t buy any of this stuff. I have loved ones too, you know. Yea, their all killers but I love them.”

“Bill Gates speaking to you, world. Buy Microsoft. Do it now. Don’t even think of buying anyone else’s product. I know how to get into your harddrive. Got it?”

“Sadaam Hussein say buy Quick Kill. No more ugly grass. No more weeds. No more enemies.”

“Robert Dole for Viagra. Enough said?”

“Elizabeth Dole for Truth In Advertising. Trust me, Viagra doesn’t help.” Whoa, there, Bob.

“If everyone who owned a gun, legal or not, would shoot just one person we wouldn’t have any overcrowding. Huh...what? I didn’t mean me. Didn’t you see my movie, Omega Man?” This from Charleston Heston. Long way from Moses there, Chuckie.

Robert Lay was going on, “and double your money back if your not satisfied. You won’t get it because I took it but the offer stands.”

“Hi, I’m O.J Simpson for Super Sharp, the last set of knives you’ll ever need. Trust me, I know knives.” Yea, he does, he really does.
