Thread Name: Jingles you remember.
Subject: RE: Jingles you remember.
Good grief! I never thought to see this dumped on a "folk" pile. However, having grown up in central California in the forties and fifties.........

I remember a classmate in business school who worked for Wrigley Co. I remarked that I had begun to hate that jingle, "Double your pleasure, double your fun, etc." for Doublemint gum. He replied, "Yeah, but you can't get it out of your head, can you?" Point taken - reluctently.

I'm surprised no one has resurrected the hoary old "Chester and Miss Kitty" jokes.

I remember, too, the Tom Mix radio show in the forties, sponsored by Hot Ralston cereal. The theme song was "Pony Boy." Anyone remember that tune?
