Speaking of Tootsie-Rolls, I can still recall the comercial I watched when I was a litle kid, back in the early '60s: a cartoon of a wise owl holding a Tootsie-Roll pop: "How many licks," Mr Owl said, "does it take to get to the center of a Tootsie-Roll pop? Let's find out." He took one lick and said: "One." He took another lick and said: "Two." He took one more lick and said: "Three." (Mr Owl suddenly crunched down it.) "Three," he said again. Voice of a narrator: "How many licks does it REALLY take to get to the center of a Tootsie Roll pop? The world may NEVER know."

[@muzerhythm2242]

And the regular Tootsie Roll commercial "Everything I look I see...becomes a Tootsie Roll to me"😁

That Tootsie Pop commercial you mentioned was originally from the 1960s. Every so often someone else redoes the animation, but they always use the original audio track. They've done it at least three times since the original premiered.

In Hebrew, the word "believe" means to "trust and obey" so we must trust and obey Yahusha Faith saves you. TRUE faith will produce obedience. If we have genuine faith, we will obey YAHUAH’S Law (Turah). We will repent when we stumble into sin (sin is transgression of The Turah) and trust in The Master Yahusha. Grace is what allows us to be the men and women that YAHUAH The Father in Heaven called us to be. It allows us to obey through His SET-APART (HOLY) RUACH (SPIRIT). 🙂

Very difficult and frustrating to watch live Television today.

[@ghostcityshelton9378]

I costs abit but that's why I have Xfinity 1, not all times but most times you can ZIP through the stupid ads. If you can't then another trick works alot of times where you turn on the program then hit pause & just chill for ten mins or so, then press play, show comes on & you zip through the ads....if it catches up you just do the same thing all over again. If it states can't fast forward then most times I won't watch that show if if do I just turn off the sound so I don't have to listen to the ads, showing you the same crap you can't afford or the med ads that are designed to kill people then latter you see "If you took this crap & it caused this, this, this injury or a loved one DIED call lawyer dumdum, we'll get you the money blah, blah, blah." Netflix is $10. A month AD FREE.

[@styldsteel1]

totally agree. Optimum which is my cable service, you can pause and rewind, and pause and take a shower or something, come back and hit play, FF through the ads, especially the ads for the medicines that say it'll cure my stuffy and runny nose, but it'll case severe nausea and vomiting, severe headaches, possibly go into severe and possibly deadly convulsions..... but my nose will clear up. but the fact still remains that the actual TV show was still around 27 minutes long, and it was quality TV to boot! Ok..here's what really urks me to bits and pieces. The advertisers pay the networks X amount of dollars and the networks will gladly run them. This has nothing to do with you or I. We the customer are absolutely at the bottom of the totem pole, My interest, your interest, your neighbor's interest does not matter one ioda to the networks. We are invisible to them. It a business. And it stinks.

Also, I do have Netflix. It kind of feels like to me, sort of pseudo TV. Yes, the they have TV that's familiar, but still... lol pseudo.

It's positively horrible Jessie. What convinces me that we, the customer are not important to the cable companies at all. Not in the least bit. The ad agencies are paying our cable companies huge sums of money to advertise on their channels. That's what keeps the cable companies in business. As for the customer? We are unequivocally at the bottom of their totem pole and for all intensive purposes, we do not exist. In fact, we probably just get in the cable company's way.
