Apparently, you SHOULD sing/dance/listen to music while vacuuming...
Electrolux Lab Test
Somehow I think this might work for me, but not for my neighbours... I would have to crack up the volume of the radio so much that they would not be amused :blush:
Oh, I only found out about this commercial after watching "Top 100 TV Commercials" (Channel 4). Agree with Paul that it stays with you.Quote:

I cooked today and I forgot to turn off the oven, it was on for a good 3 hours before I walked in the kitchen and wondered why it was so hot. :blush2:
:eek: I have done that too :banghead: Several times actually: the cost of multitasking :p.
I even have done that with food still in the oven :redface: Not 3 hours though, but the food was spoiled and the burned smell stayed in the house for another 2 days ...
In the shake and vac ad the woman has accepted her domestic role, she makes the best of it, finding hidden joy in such unlikely places as a packet of carpet de-odourizer. She understands the satisfaction of a job well done, and finds it a cause for celebration. She is at one with the role she has chosen. She a has positive mental attitude. The result is happiness.
On the other hand Freddie sees the act of hoovering as a burden and a symbol of womens servitude. Its a chore, drudgery, a job that is never done with - next day it will need doing again. His solution is to run from it, leave it behind and search for something else. But he knows he won't, its just a dream . A dream he relies on to keep going.
Ever tried vacuuming your sheep, Mick? :smilewinkgrin:Quote:

I don't really mind purple and red so much, I really dislike purple and yellow but that has more to do with a college football team.
I switched to a gray bag. The real issue is a good travel bag. I need something to fit my airplane essentials* but still be mildly cute.Quote:

Luckily, all my bags are more or less big enough to carry those listed on daily basis (throw in a Eee PC and a very large pencil case too). I have never had a gray bag, though; mildly intrigued now.Quote:
