Laxatives

I submitted a slogan to Ex-Lax that got turned down. I suggested:

Ex-Lax.....we will give you a run for your money!

Re: His name is definitly Frank



I can't understand why they didn't run with it!!

Re: Re: His name is definitly Frank

They told me it was a s&%tty slogan

Re: Re: Re: His name is definitly Frank

But it's funny stuff like that which sells products!

Re: His name is definitly Frank

You are right Josh......sh&#t sells!!

Re: Re: His name is definitly Frank

I've always thought if Ex-Lax decided on a name change, the company could adopt the old imported car lemon name: Yugo (By the way, are there any of those Yugos still around? One'd make a grand Columbo car if his old one finally fell apart).

I once had to deal with a rude waitress in a diner. I asked for prune juice, and she asked "Is that to go?"

Re: His name is definitly Frank

you guys are nuts!!!

Re: His name is definitly Frank

.....or was it 'Boutros-Boutros-Boutros Columbo'?

Re: Re: His name is definitly Frank

Columbo! Oh, you doesn't has to call me Columbo. You can call me Ray, or you can call me Jay, or you can call me Johnny, or you can call me Sonny, or you can call me RayJay, or you can call me RJ, or you can call me RJJ or you can call me RJJ Jr., but you doesn't have to call me Columbo!

Re: His name is definitly Frank

Frank -- no. Then it would most likely be Francis. He notes that only his wife uses his first name. Frank? Only his wife? No big deal.

Named after a Pope however... Xavier, maybe Ignatius, perhaps Pios? Somewhat embarressing.
