No Sell Cigarettes

by
Before Sudsy wore a sheet, he was a skeleton and the mascot for NoXSell Cigarettes. His catch phrase was, “Buy them because they’re bloody good for you!”. (I’m lying… Sudsy never had a job nor did he have any bones & also cigarettes are bad for you).

Frank’s Pizza Mystery

by
I was up late one night (Rat’s do that ya’ know) finishing up a tub of Breyer’s Rocky Road, when I suddenly got hungry with a craving for some Pizza. I called up Frank’s because I like the way the Chef wears his scarf, in hopes that I could finally find a joint that delivers in the middle of the night. The strange thing was that it went straight to a voice message that sounded a lot like Frankie.
OUR FRANKIE!!! Has he been secretly running a Pizzeria this whole time and not telling me? Is this the answer to my dreams of Free Pizza For Life? The Plot in Frankie’s Apartment thickens. Tune in next year to see what happens!

NETFLIX does it again!

by
I’ve been waiting for a reboot of Hey Nephew!

 

Back in 1991, Hey Nephew! was my absolute FAVORITE Greeting Card (FOR nephews,
FROM aunts and uncles).  Of course, it doesn’t hold a candle to some of the Easter Cards for
a GRANDSON from that era, but it definitely beats most of the Graduation Greetings
offered in this period.
What a cool dog.  I always wondered what the other side of his face looks like.  I hope
Netflix “keeps it real” and never shows it though.  That’s one of the main mysteries of this
Greeting Card.  It would be like telling us who killed Laura Palmer to open up the show.
Tank Top tucked into belted Shorts.  I sense a theme.
Jams style shorts.  Let’s hope they’re anthropomorphic in the show.
I used to look at these sneakers for almost 2 seconds, one time. I never had a fantasy about them and they barely registered back then. I can’t wait to see what Netflix has in store for these guys!
