@John1, I'm old enough to remember thinking when that commercial came out, "What the heck are they doing with that great Carly Simon song?!?".  Member of SPMC, FCCB, ANA and ANS.

 @John1, I can never listen to the song without thinking of Heinz Ketchup, because of the song's use in 70's ads for Heinz which are on Youtube. Edited by datadragon

Like they say, You can't win them all. But... If you did "win them all" it would be just like the Twilight Zone episode (Season 1, Ep.28 ' A Nice Place to Visit') which is one of my favorite eps. Opening narration by Rod Serling: Portrait of a man at work, the only work he's ever done, the only work he knows. His name is Henry Francis Valentine, but he calls himself "Rocky", because that's the way his life has been - rocky and perilous and uphill at a dead run all the way. He's tired now, tired of running or wanting, of waiting for the breaks that come to others but never to him, never to Rocky Valentine.The narration continues after Rocky is shot by the cops. A scared, angry little man. He thinks it's all over now, but he's wrong. For Rocky Valentine, it's just the beginning."Rocky" the gangster dies and goes to what he thinks it's Heaven because he gets everything he wants. He wins every bet, gets the girls he wants, the only thing he can't do is visit with his old buddies that have died because as his "guardian angel," named Pip (played by Sebatian Cabot,) tells him that this place is for Rocky and no one else is real. He eventually gets bored and can't take it anymore! He says that if he stays in Heaven any longer, he'll go crazy! So, he asks Pip to take him to "the other place". Pip then says, "Heaven? Whatever gave you the idea you were in Heaven, Mr. Valentine? This IS the other place!" and then starts to laugh! Switch back to Rod Serling for the closing narration: A scared, angry little man who never got a break. Now he has everything he's ever wanted - and he's going to have to live with it for eternity - in The Twilight Zone.Sorry about that. I got a little sidetracked! What was I going to say... Oh, yeah! Congratulations to the winners!    ANA ID: 3203813 - CONECA ID: N-5637 Clean a coin that may be worth collecting? Please DON'T! When in doubt, leave it dirty!!
