On my winamp, there is apparently an option to watch internet television. I am now blissfully luxuriating in a steady stream of commercials from the 50's, for Cracker Jack and Maypo and Butter-Nut coffee. But the best one so far has been the Jell-o commercial about a "little Chinese baby" who was served Jell-o, but then couldn't eat it because he couldn't pick it up with his chopsticks -- until his mother gave him "great Western invention", a spoon. All narrated in a "Chinese" accent, which meant a lot of talking about raspbelly and chelly and glape and olange. Oh yes indeed.

ahahaha! I never saw a band-aid that blended into somebody's skin, now that you mention it. I thought that was because I have dark skin, but I guess they're just equal-opportunity unnaturalness. *g*
