I just saw the "under cover boss" episode where the CEO of roto-rooter goes undercover to see the inner workings of his business by doing front line jobs.

it was great. they air blasted some sort of tub drain and it blew sludge up into his face.:haha:

You can thank Stan Freeberg for that. He was the Madison Avenue guru that came up with the concept that if you can make a commercial funny, it will leave a greater imprint on the consumer. :yeah:

The song was sung by Stan Freeberg, basically the same as Elvis version, I think I still have it somewhere here on an old 78!:yep:
Edit: Just Googled and the name is Stan Freberg unless it is a different person?:hmmm:
see:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stan_Freberg and search for Heartbreak Hotel
Edit again: Just found a free (not pirate, is free) download, just look for "MP3 File":
