Just kidding!!!!!


Just saw the latest Pepsi promo and the opening line is somthing to the fact of " So we decided to use "The High Road".......talking about some marketing numbers...... My brother who knows I visit here all the time pointed it out to me.....So now every time I see the promo I just get a funny grin on my face.

Heh. My favorite cola commercial is several months old: A house full of Coke is a house full of friends. So, stock up today! :D

The next thing you know you'll have to go through 6 pages of Wal-mart ad's just to log in.

Wouldn't it actually be frightening if active shooters and THR became part of mainstream consumer culture? I mean, it would take away half the fun and all of the interesting and honest people....
 
Guns in Advertising

TGI:
Ditech, a mortgage company, has an ad for home equity loans which starts with a guy saying "pull" and then blasting a bunch of credit cards with a shotgun.
 
Remember Catch 22 did not become part of the vernacular until the book came out.

Gonna laugh the first time some some liberal anti on some medium makes mention of taking The High Road and the interviewer or someone informs them that is the name of a Firearms Forum promoting responsible firearm ownership, RKBA, 2A, CCW and such. :D
 
Can you say copywrite infringement?
Shhhhh. :uhoh:

Oh! ye'll take the high road and
I'll take the low road,
And I'll be in Scotland afore ye;
But me and my true love
Will never meet again
On the bonnie, bonnie banks of Loch Lomond.


The story:
It is a true story of two Jacobites
captured by the English and due to
be hanged at Carlisle.
Then the English Lord decides to set
free the unmarried man and hang the
married man as an example.
The idea was that the free man would
tell everyone what would happen if
they fought for their freedom again.

But the Jacobite to be hanged said
to the other "you take the high road,
and I'll take the low road and I'll be
in Scotland afore ye"

The meaning of this is that to the
Celtic man of Scotland the high road
is the road of the living and the low
road is the road of those who have
passed into the spirit world through
death.
He believed that he would be with his
wife before the free man.
