Heed the Call!

The best radio commercial I've heard in a long time is not for a company that I have any need to partonize. I'm not in the market for excersize equipment. Yet I actually look forward to hearing it, and know most of the lines [some bits are a little hazy].

Crazy voice man:I...am...the elephant prince! The tortoise has written that [when the seven circles aline (??)] I will take the throne from my father, the scorpion. You! Will you join me?

Woman: Get lost.

Crazy man: I am the only way to the prairie, where all mankind can run free. You! Will you take up the shovel [of truth (??)]?

Irritated man: I don't have a shovel. I don't have any change.

Crazy man: You, sir! [Will you take your place] at the Great Picnic?

Man #2: Sure. (pause) Do you know anything about treadmills?

Voice Over: If you're not talking to the people at The Fitness Experience, you may as well be talking to anyone. Blah blah blah....

Crazy Man: Heed the call...of...the Elephant Prince!!

Man #2: Seriously. What should I do about this stomach?

--End--


Cracks me the hell up every time. It's even better when you can hear the actual vocal inflections. Priceless.
