Jingles

I was thinking of the old time advertising jingles that we heard growing up. To be correct, a jingle is set to music. But for our purposes today, I use the word "jingle" to describe any advertising catchphrase. I had to google this because my memory wasn't so good, but here are a few examples from my childhood:

"Hungryyyyy, Hungry Jack. They gobble 'em up and the plate come back for Hungry Jack."

"All - tempa - Cheer"

"Please don't squeeze the Charmin!"

"I can't believe I ate the whole thing"

"Where's the beef?"

"Look Ma, no cavities!"

"Plop plop Fizz fizz O what a relief it is"

"I can't believe I ate the WHOLE thing

Okay, so your task is to come up with a jingle. I was thinking that the only product I have right now that I would like advertised is my blog. So please write a jingle for my blog!

    Oh, well. Guess that will have to do.

  8. Okay, I"m going to declare a winner on this one. There were some great entries here, but I'm especially liking Nene's "Play Word Joust-Where you really can have the last word!" :)

    Congratulations Nene! I hope it won't seem like the booby prize that you have to come up with the next game. ;)
