This popped up in a dream this morning and I had to share.
Back in '89, my dad dropped me off at Chapman University for my freshman year in college. Before that, we went all over CA and did all the tourist stuff (DL, Knott's, Universal, Sea World etc). It was tough for both of us because we never spent any time together when I was younger. It was like going on a trip with a stranger. One day, we went to Sea World and did all the shows. The one we did right after Shamu was one called "Ski! Ski! Ski!" or something like that. It was a bunch of people doing jet ski stunts in a pool. There was a theme song sung by the Young Americans or some group like that. You know, a bunch of clean cut Carpenters wannabees singing: "C'mon, everybody! Ski, ski, ski!" It was the stupidest show ever. So, at a quiet time in the show, my dad just suddenly looks around and goes, "Hey, this is a fu cking commercial trying to get us to buy jet skis! Let's get out of here." It was so funny and so out of character for him to be so loud and contrary in public. So we got up and left. Needless to say, it gave me a giggle fit that day. I woke up this morning because I had a dream about it and woke up giggling.
See, CP, this is who I get my anti-commercials, anti-product placement thing from. lol
