My wife remains amused at the Viagra-type ads in which they talk about not having time to wait while they are out in public places.She pictures them engaging in sexual relations right then and there without seeking any privacy.Seems a wee bit exhibitionistic.

Ah, storyboards ! What memories they evoke – good and nightmarish…The world of television advertising would never survive without storyboard !
Great directors like Alfred Hitchcock storyboarded all their films in preproduction.
I’m just thinking how Hitch would do a treatment for an ad about condoms……. I’ll have to get back to you on that one.

In addition to its use in ED, Cialis is also prescribed for men with prostate troubles to reduce the frequency of urination. The language in those ads refers not only to sex but also spare a man from leaving a dining room, sporting event or whatever to seek a men’s room. It is amusing that the advertiser conflates both indications.

might be funny if it wasn’t so sad that folks can’t say condom. seriously, how childish and regressive is that. OMG people have sex. giggle-giggle. shame-shame.sorry. not sad. pathetic. we have a pathetic culture. we throw sex in everyone’s face. sexualize everything. but we can’t say the actual words or talk about it.

@dook: At 18, I borrowed my dad’s Nash to go on a fishing camping trip in northern New England. Nash actually advertised such use, one could buy accessories such as window screens.@Kip W: Now, at 86, I own a Honda Element and drop the seat backs just to carry stuff like lumber & mattresses.For bigger loads, the seat can also be easily removed. Handy.
