There’s a commercial currently airing on TV that has fans of the kids program Sesame Street smiling. Delta Faucets enlisted the talent of Jerry Nelson, who is the voice of “Count von Count” on the PBS series to sing in their “Hands” commercial promoting their new Touch2O technology. The commercial… Read More ""Hands." Or, "Sesame Street Meets Madison Avenue.""
Scott Sanfilippo's Blog
"He Looks So Good." Or, "In My Obituary Use a Current Photo."
The obituary read like a small novel. Two large columns filled with Ted’s life long accomplishments. A father of three, a member of the greatest generation, a successful businessman. When he served his country he received medals for good conduct and marksmanship before being honorably discharged. When I saw Ted’s… Read More ""He Looks So Good."

"The Power of the Blog." Or, "The Times Leader Reads This Stuff."
The other day I wrote a post about The Times Leader newspaper’s “Employers of Choice” advertising section and the fact that it contained… well, NO employers of choice. Today while on their website, I noticed that the “Employers of Choice” section has been removed. John Baldino and his team get… Read More ""The Power of the Blog."

"Flamable Paper Towels." Or, "Stupid Quote of the Day."
While eating lunch today, which consisted of BBQ chicken tenders, french fries and apple sauce, I checked the local news online.

Headbanger’s Holiday, The Flu, The Tube
Headbanger’s Holiday Yesterday was Halloween, the one day a year when kids think the world owes them a sugar high.

"My New Florida Car." Or, "Don't Smash This One Up."
Those who follow my blog regularly will know that I was driving a 2010 Ford Mustang around south Florida. That was until one fateful afternoon when I was rear-ended on I-95. Following the accident, I made the insane decision to drive my 2007 BMW 335i convertible from Pennsylvania to Florida.… Read More ""My New Florida Car." Or, "Don't Smash This One Up.""
"Good Employers are Hard to Find." Or," Why Content Matters."
So I’m catching up on the morning news and I hit the Wilkes-Barre Times Leader‘s website. After reading about the latest developments in the kids for cash scandal involving former Luzerne County gangster judges, Michael Conahan and Mark “Scooch” Ciavarella, I checked out their “Employers of Choice” feature.

We all need a Sugar Daddy. Or do we?
One of my favorite newspaper columns besides the New York Post‘s Page Six is the Palm Beach Post‘s Page 2 Live by Jose Lambiet. Jose covers the shenanigans of the removed-from-reality Palm Beachers and their counterparts in Hollywood. Today Lambiet, who I’d like to sit down with over a martini… Read More "We all need a Sugar Daddy. Or do we?"
Your wife is hot. Or not.
The battle of the billboards is heating up in South Florida just as the weather starts to cool down. I’ve been passing the “Your wife is hot” signs on I-95 for a few months now and got a good chuckle the first time I saw it. Air Around the Clock… Read More "Your wife is hot. Or not."
A Very Moving Weekend
What a wild weekend. I closed on my new townhouse in Delray Beach, FL on Tuesday and managed to move everything from my old condo in Palm Beach in just one day. Granted I felt like a gypsy driving a convertible overflowing with suitcases full of my belongings, but if… Read More "A Very Moving Weekend"
