Yes! From CD...

Ooh, that sounds so much better than the in vivo type! I'll have to ask my GI specialist about it!

There's a new Chevy Silverado commercial out now, with the following line:

"Chevy Silverado delivers a quiet cab, that's second to nobody in its class. And by nobody, I mean Ram and Ford."

By syntactic substitution, he is in effect saying "Chevy Silverado delivers a quiet cab, that's second to Ram and Ford."

It's still an improvement on the predecessor Silverado commercial, with Will Hoge singing "He's a 20-year straight get to work on time".

Also, using the word 'nobody' implies that the truck is human!! And, humans are not 'its'.

Perhaps he was just telling everyone that he has a magnetic personality.

However, I have to add that, if his medicine cabinet ever contained a bottle of aspirin, or Tylenol, or Ibuprofen, then he has owned tablets previously.
Those bottles may not have held silicon chips, but...they did contain tablets.

You can't make this stuff up.

I guess the people writing spam email to me are moonlighting as sign makers too...

The last piece of sculpture I made is in my living room. It's a rooster, 33" long.

"...people end up in their reclining years without much in the bank..."

Probably accurate if referring to some retirees
