That's probably because younger men are taking prescription medication regularly these days, and their peckers don't work because of it. Also, weren't there laws requiring these ads be run only after a certain time? If so, what happened?<br /><br />I see that the people at Extenze are now trying to double their customer base by selling <a href="http://www.extenzeformen.com/women_extenze.html" rel="nofollow">extenze for women</a>.

Paris is GORGEOUS---one could spend an entire YEAR there! I'm with you on the sneaky ads. I guess sneaky corporate America wouldn't be sneaky corporate America without sneaky, deceptive ads, would they? Get better real quick, Marc, and we'll all look forward to your Parisian musings!<br />============<br />Stimpson,<br />Yeah, they've gone from showing real, regular-looking impotent old farts to showing handsome, sexy, debonair-looking younger guys. Typical dishonest American media glossover. And yes, I'm glad you agree that prescription product ads don't belong on TV!Jack Jodellhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02165430903903838990noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6234638383123311700.post-86391247935388201902009-08-30T13:35:01.618-05:002009-08-30T13:35:01.618-05:00Um, they can do it while in separate bathtubs beca...Um, they can do it while in separate bathtubs because he's been taking Extenze. That's my theory.<br /><br />BTW, have you noticed how the actors in Viagra commercials now are younger than the ones 10 years ago? It's being marketed to guys in their 40s now.<br /><br />I find myself longing for the days when sugary cereals and McDonald's junk were the worst things advertised on TV. Prescription drugs shouldn't be advertised on TV.Mikehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10183891839987655906noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6234638383123311700.post-25631093277897797352009-08-30T13:08:14.679-05:002009-08-30T13:08:14.679-05:00re:

>...re:<br />>>>Let me know YOUR thoughts, or<br />>>>share with us YOUR most hated<br />>>>TV ads, ok?<br /><br />The TV ads I hate the most are the ones that cynically market directly to children (who, in turn, then pester their parents to buy the product). It's a sneaky, shameless tactic. Some of the Nordic nations, like Sweden, have actually banned this form of advertising.<br />The worst part of it is that (without exception) every one of these products is BAD for children. McDonald's "food" is poison and they are an evil company on every level, from their destructive corporate agricultural practices to their fiercely anti-union, crappy treatment of their workers.<br />BTW, thanks for your recent comment, asking about my whereabouts. I took a trip to Europe. Like you, I'll be taking a brief break from political writing on my blog and write about my experiences in Paris (as soon as I recover from the nasty virus I picked up overseas).Marc McDonaldhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17105754072842852126noreply@blogger.com
