Now, THOSE commercials were annoying. Is Peter Piper Pizza still around? If so, I may need to stop in and reminisce when I'm back in town in November.

If I remember, his name was Tony, "so come on ova, to Peta Pipa Pizza"...

What's worse is that there are a lot of people who are actually swayed by those political commercials. Those guys don't spend that kind of money and expect to get no results. Millions of Americans make up their mind based on those 30 sec. mindless, mendacious political commercials. I wish politicians were held to account for the lies they tell in their ads like business owners are.

Those cheesy "Ambulance Chaser" ads are not only repulsive but extremely unprofessional. Who in their right mind would support anyone associated with that "low life" approach.

anybody with dreams of $$ who just watched a lawyer commercial promising $$

If you listen closely, the voice over sounds like Barney Fife when he's really excited.

The right for attorneys to advertise comes from a case heard before the US Supreme Court (433 U.S. 350) in 1977. Justices ruled, after a 5-4 decision, that attorneys had the right to advertise under the 1st Amendment as commercial speech. The kicker is that it was Bates vs. State Bar of Arizona. The plaintiffs were John Bates and Van O'Steen.

That's correct. His real name actually was Tony and he owned the company at the time.

Wow, JLC58....Why attack Jenee with such rude and hateful comments? It seems like you have a personal issue with her.
