• Andy Travis : OK, let me ask you this. Can't we do a cheap-o commercial? I mean, hire professional musicans, but, uh, maybe sing the jingle ourselves?

  Venus Flytrap : Can anyone around here sing?

  Herb Tarlek : Any jerk can sing. Now listen, these are the copy points that you gotta work into the jingle, okay? Now. A: All weather floral arrangements.

  Venus Flytrap : What does that mean?

  Dr. Johnny Fever : Uh, that's plastic flowers.

  Herb Tarlek : B: Maintenance-free artificial turf.

  Dr. Johnny Fever : Plastic grass.

  Herb Tarlek : C: They accept all major credit cards.

  Dr. Johnny Fever : That'd be your plastic money.

  Herb Tarlek : Plus, six convenient locations, open weekends, all night hot line, group discount rates *and* free parking.

• Randall Ferryman : I have just opened a chain of six funeral homes in Cincinnati. I want to advertise.

  Andy Travis : Uh, yeah, on a rock 'n' roll station.

  Randall Ferryman : Yes. That's how I did it in California. You see, I'm a volume dealer. I've got to move them in, and move them out. Unfortunately, people aren't dying fast enough these days. It's a problem.
