And, yes, if I could transpose your face with that guy's, and add your boys, that would be quite the scene! (Of course, one would secretly be smiling, if not outwardly, as he's done with this scene!)
I just said the other day that "Back to school" has become the retailers' holiday before Halloween (which comes directly before Christmas, of course!).
On another note, our bell choir is going to learn "Most wonderful time" for our Christmas concerts this year. Looking forward to some fun!
When you come here, you just feel the urge to comment tangentially.
I love that commercial and I don't know why considering that I homeschool and "back to school" has a whole different meaning for me. Sometimes I'm more like the kids than the parent in that commercial.
Yes, I could so see you doing that, if you haven't already done it! Are you sure they didn't see you doing it sometime and get the idea for the commercial?
My favorite commercial too. I love when he rides the shopping cart at the end of the commercial!!
Of course MY kids are acting like the guy in the commercial. They CANNOT WAIT to go to school. And that makes me happy. So we're all running around & riding on shopping cards here.
Tangential - Of, relating to, or moving along or in the direction of a tangent. I think Sue said you keep going off on rabbit trails and we all hop along behind you without thinking. :-)
Hahaha! You are a kook! A very funny kook! And I'm so glad!
I don't know any kids that age that would look that sad to go back to school. My first thought was that the dad was embarrassing them. Then I figured it out. Takes me a minute sometimes. And this is the first time I've seen this commercial. Has something to do with not watching tv I suspect.
I am not the most consistent person you will ever know. I might write my own blogs...I might not. I tend to say too much and then regret it so if I do write, hopefully I'll re-read what I've written and then delete most of it. I Love Jesus.I am trying to reach the point in my life where I remember to "give it to God". Sometimes, I forget that he is in charge and then I try to do it myself. So far the results should be proof enough that I need to let him take over. I'm working on it with help from a few special people.
I am a firefighter and an EMT, and of course I am an adrenalin junkie. I am more focused and work best under stressful situations.
I have 2 kids whom I adore. They are boys ages 12 and 17. They are proof that I don't ALWAYS work best under stressful situations!! But, we'll be fine.
I have tons of respect for our military and our country.
My Blog title is Monkey's Are Funny...ok, they really aren't that funny but that's what my sister and I say when my ADHD kicks in. (long story)

WHY do those kids not look happy? I was always so excited to shop for new notebooks!
I like Sue's word......tangentially.....it is a good word. And so true.
I'm guessing they should have used you for this commercial. I wonder how much he got paid to act like that??
still laughing.......
WAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!

I had to watch it twice. If that were me in the commercial, my kids would be saying "MOM, stop embarassing me!"
Linda at 2nd cup of coffee has the same ad on her blog. Its pretty funny.

Enjoy your school days!
Sue J- ok, I'm off to get my dictionary.
CK- Oh good, now I don't need to get my dictionary.
Sue J- WAHAHAHA!
Also, I need to make it a point to hear you playing the bells this year.
(in person, not just on CK's blog)
And, ALAS, CK reminded me yesterday that my "big alone day" may not be alone as one of mine IS smiling......and believe me, it is outwardly!
Thanks for the chuckles.
Simpatico!
That commercial has your name written all over it. I could be in that one too. :)
Come visit me. Your sister thinks you hijacked my blog. I don't think it's as good as your posts though.
You know I am really enjoying all these really long comments you are leaving on my blog. Just wish I got to read them. LOL! :D
Brim over I to but I contemplate the collection should prepare more info then it has.
