Did you listen? NoooOOOooo ...

Post by larry cottrill » Fri Jan 20, 2006 4:10 am

This goes in the Humor section. This is the announcer's lead-in for a radio commercial for something or other that is now airing a few times per week on WHO Radio out of Des Moines:

"Change your underpants every day. What if you're in an accident?

Put down that stick - someone could lose an eye!

If you keep making that face, someday it'll freeze like that!"

Did you listen to your mother? Or are you sittting in a hospital bed with dirty underpants, one eye and a frozen face?


Sorry, but I think that is hilarious. It still cracks me up every time I happen to hear it.

Feel free to post any funny commercial dialogue here - but it has to be something you really heard on a broadcast station!

Okay, I'll play... I've heard yours Larry and it's great!

My favorite is an older radio public service announcement by the two crash test dummies. They are in a museum, and the first crash test dummy says, "Hey, look at this vase. It's baroque."

Second crash test dummy replies, "Why, did you ba-reak it?"

So stupid; cracks me up everytime too...

Last one; I promise !!!

Al Belli

There is a factory in Northern Minnesota which makes the Tickle Me Elmo toys.
The toy laughs when you tickle it under the arms.
Well, Lena is hired at The Tickle Me Elmo factory and she reports for her first day promptly at 0800.


The next day at 0845 there is a knock at the Personnel Manager's door.
The Foreman throws open the door and begins to rant about the new employee.
He complains that she is incredibly slow and the whole line is backing up, putting the entire production line behind schedule.
The Personnel Manager decides he should see this for himself, so the 2 men march down to the factory floor.


When they get there the line is so backed up that there are Tickle Me Elmos all over the factory floor and they're really beginning to pile up.
At the end of the line stands Lena surrounded by mountains of Tickle Me Elmos.
She has a roll of plush red fabric and a huge bag of small marbles.
The 2 men watch in amazement as she cuts a little piece of fabric, wraps it around two marbles and begins to carefully sew the little package between Elmo's legs.


The Personnel Manager bursts into laughter.
After several minutes of hysterics he pulls himself together and approaches Lena.
"I'm sorry," he says to her, barely able to keep a straight face, but I think you misunderstood the instructions I gave you yesterday........
"Your job is to give Elmo two test tickles".

First I'll tell you a story, its not as funny as it could be because, it is essentially true. :oops:

Back when I was at school, way back before the invention of the pc, I was given the task of writing an essay about something that I had seen on TV that I did not like. So I set to and wrote a essay about how there where to many animal programs on telly and in particular that we where seeing far too much of the world famous naturist David Attenborough. :lol:

Now whilst I have got you, to pick your brains. I am very interested in valveless pulse jet theory, I have read your piece 8) in the essential reading and the stuff about what makes a great engine. are there any other good theoretical reads that spring to mind? Or people who are relay sound on theory to pay attention to?

Ps just in case you don't know, David Attenborough is naturalist :) and a naturist walks around with out clothes :oops: . It goes to show that one wrong word can change the meaning completely. :roll:

Bwahahahahaha

any other good theoretical reads...

That's a good one.

My paper is very far from a good theoretical read.

I've been begging people for help on making it better and sounder and more serious on theory, but no one I have asked was willing to jump in. Sorry.

All the sources I know are sketchy on pulsejets. Quite possibly the best I know is Foa J. V., 1960, Elements of Flight Propulsion, John Wiley and Sons Inc., New York.

its the best iv found so far
all i seem to get are people telling me that i am wrong and that i don't understand :(
whtch of couse is quite true :wink: but i'm learning :? or trying
i notice that the thundercain copies only work if they stick a wet sock in one of the intakes :o perhaps if they had known a bit more theory they would not have spoiled the kedency by having it suck to much air :oops:

on acoustics i noticed here viewtopic.php?f=3&t=3104&st=0&sk=t&sd=a ... FFT#p38146 and here viewtopic.php?f=3&t=4085&p=57624&hilit= ... FFT#p57624 that some valveless pulse jets seem to have the even harmonics present :?: if i am not missreading that :oops:

epitaph to a pioneering aviatrix. :cry: :cry: :cry:

Here lies the body of Beartix Aeortrix.
her first pulse jet flight,
was going alright.
But when to low to bail,
the valve it did fail.
Dropping her right in the, :D
shipyard.

There was a young lady from Crew, :lol:
and by pulse jet she flew.
Over London she buzzed,
caused one hell of a fuss,
and was shot down by the RAF over Cue,

In what way are pulse jet theorists like talking clocks? :? :? :?

If you have one
you can be certain about what time it is, :D
if you have two
you can be certain of nothing. :lol:
