doing musical Burger King commercials. Oh how the mighty have fallen. I used to love those boys. The epitome of frat rock, and they won the 1995 Best New Artist Grammy. OY!

Well Destiny's Child have done McDonalds commercials, but then they were already Satan spawn so I guess it wasn't quite the same fall from grace.

Nothing precious, plain to see, don't make a fuss over me. Not loud, not soft, but somewhere inbetween. Say sorry, just let it be the word you mean.

Whoopi Goldberg and Carol Burnett both did Entenmann's commercials. Maybe he really likes Burger King food.

If anyone ever tells you that you put too much Parmesan cheese on your pasta, stop talking to them. You don't need that kind of negativity in your life.

It hardly seems the same. But perhaps that check was too appealing.

God, if even self-professed fans call him Hootie, what chance did he ever have, really?

I always wonder what is behind that smile on his face everytime I see the commercial.

Is he thinking "What the hell did I get myself into?"

Or is he thinking of that big fat check going into his pocket?

"Do you know what pledge time is, Andrew"? said the PBS Executive. "Yes", Lloyd Webber replied. "My 50th birthday special must be one program that gets done a lot." "No", mused the man from PBS heedlessy. "Not so much. Our Stephen Sondheim Carnegie Hall concert. That's a big one." Spoons, forks and knives seemed suddenly to suspend their motion in horror, all around the table.

I'd bet its "What the hell?", as its Hootie. I don't see how he would command that big of a paycheck. Several years ago yes, but not anymore.

Hootie and the Blowfish played the Canton Ohio Pro Football Hall of Fame Week Ribs Festival, there is no lower than that.

I mean, Huey Lewis headlined this year. Hall and Oates two years back. Night Ranger played it.

one of the funniest lines on FRIENDS ever was "Monica, where did you get that hickey?" "That would be the work of a Blowfish" (three of the six had been to see a concert and gone to a party afterwards)
