However, I just got back from seeing "Children of Men", and it seemed there was a dog or a cat in almost every scene. That gave me something to enjoy, since I only understood about a third of the dialogue, couldn't tell the bad guys from the good guys (with one or two exceptions), and found the plot rather confusing.

Since we don't have Walgreen's, obviously I haven't seen it, but Caliban has started giving me wonderful neck-and-shoulder massages. I just wish he would do it for longer at a time. Having 5.5 kilos of cat walking around on your aching neck and shoulders is really nice! But he always ends up flopping down around my neck, then he slowly slides down into my arms. Then my shoulders hurt again, from holding 5.5 kilos of cat. ;)

Is it one of those advertising they're "always open", or for a product? (Obviously I've not seen it, yet.)

You know what, I was so taken with watching the cat that I didn't even notice what kind of ad it was! I only paid enough attention to the dialogue to find out what company the ad mentions, so I could report on it here.
Maybe blkcatgal knows....
blkcatgal - 14 Jan 2007 00:07 GMT Pat, I'm like you....I was watching the cat so much that I didn't pay attention to the commercial itself. I don't think it was for a particular product, though, just a general-type commercial. I'll have to watch for it again.

It was basically promoting that they have various products to make you feel better, and the commercial showed the mom seeing the family helping around the house so the mom didn't have as much to do and could relax - the man doing yard work, kids doing other chores, and then she's sitting on the couch with that sweet silver tabby kneading her back :)

I finally managed to catch it, almost a month after it was first mentioned here. Cute, I agree. Wish my girls would do that - Melisande only does the side of my (bare) neck, and leaves claw marks. (The clueless dermatologist I went to for something else noticed it and mistook it for a rash - for which he tried to prescribe an expensive ointment!)
jXwXeXrXmXoXnXt@sonic.net - 06 Feb 2007 23:10 GMT Speaking of commercials with cats, there's one with a leopard that I like to look at. It shows a woman dressed in a beautiful red dress, being pulled along by a leopard on a leash. The leash is made of multicolored translucent beads. At one point, the leash breaks and the beads go all over the place. Then you see that the whole scene was being shown on a flat-screen TV, and the beads start falling through the TV screen and onto the table the TV is sitting on. The leopard also jumps through the screen. It's a commercial for a Hitachi TV, maybe HDTV? I'm not sure, I watch it with the sound off. One time I turned on the sound to watch it, but that annoyed me. I'd rather stare at all the beautiful images in silence.

Will someone please tell me what they are advertising in the commercial with a beaver and Abe Lincoln and some guy at a table?
Uncaptioned commercials annoy me. Programs are required to caption, most commercials do as well, and I find the ones that don't bother kind of insulting.

I don't remember what they're advertising, but it's supposed to be some guy's dream, I know that much. He's having a little chat with the characters from his dream(s).

The critters in the dream are urging him to take it so he can visit them in his dreams, again - they miss seeing him.

We may remember a commercial that is out of the ordinary, but often we don't remember the product. I knew it was some sleep aid, but couldn't tell you which one. I've seen car commercials that affect me the same way. I find them entertaining, or maybe annoying, but have no idea what make of car is being advertised.

It is so funny because there has been many a time when the cats have briefly messaged a shoulder and I've said "Why don't you do the whole back!"

One big fat cat seems so intent on being noticed it falls right off the chair.
