From the SF Chronicle "Personals" Column, Friday, February 9th:

Advertising Age's Lenore Skenazy asked readers to come up with imaginary ads "to brazenly exploit a solemn site," such as the recent rash of ads featuring the Berlin Wall. An excerpt:


The Washington Monument is the setting. The line: "Don't be the father of your country. Trojan condoms."
Russians filing by Lenin's tomb are shown. The line: "Liked our leader? You'll love Vlasic dills. They're pickled in glass, too!"
A man standing near the eternal flame at JFK's grave lights a cigarette. The line: "Bic. Only one flame lasts longer."
The setting is a manger in Bethlehem, with a radiant glow around the baby's cradle. The line, as said by Mary (looking upward): "I said a Bud Light."
