I Wanna Be a Coal Miner
You never know what you're going to find on this blog. Think of it as one of those funky little second-hand boutiques you sometimes stumble across while wandering around a Big City, or maybe even a run down, musty junk store with a grizzled proprietor hidden in a corner, eating bologna sandwiches and reading vintage issues of MAD magazine. You get the idea.
Yesterday I was on my mini stair-stepper, watching a really interesting interview on LinkTV, when I saw this commercial for coal. Actually, the commercial was part of the film/documentary, "Burning the Future: Coal in America", and the interview was with the director, David Novack.
Trying to make burning coal and coal mining sexy -- blows my mind.

This reminds me a bit of Madonna's "Express Yourself" video. Bizarre.
ReplyDeleteI am imagining you as said proprietor in said shop. I feel this character would have been a great hit in Follies. (Now I'm imagining each of the rest of the ensemble/former ensemble in turn as said proprietor. Which is just flat out ridiculous.)
Hey Cookie -- thanks for stopping by! I think I need to go make me a bologna sandwich and look for more stuff to post.
