View Full Version : One More Sign The End Is Near!
Turner Broadcasting System is installing TV sets above the urinals in 500 bars in 12 cities across the country that will feature ads for TBS's upcoming college football coverage. According to today's (Thursday) Atlanta Journal-Constitution, the TV sets will be triggered by the same kind of sensors that also set off the automatic flush. Over pictures of a college football stadium and the TBS logo, an announcer in the ads remarks that there are two prerequisites for manhood: using the bathroom standing up and watching "as much college football as humanly possible." Jeff Gregor, a sports marketing exec at Turner, told the newspaper: "What better way to reach our target, men 18-49, than while they are a captive audience?"
I don't even want to know what triggers the TV in the toilets...

You forgot one thing, we ladies bring our life with us into the bathroom, so if we hung our life on the hooks, we wouldn't be able to see the TVs. :D
Pitooey 08-28-2003, 11:12 PM Although it's a dumb idea it might just work. I know plenty of guys in that age group who kareoke and shoot pool, throw darts and drink ALOT so they spend ALOT of time in the bathroom. They won't miss a thing ........ :lol:

Know by These Signs that the Time of Judgment is Upon Us
I In the First Sign, Dawn Wars with Dusk...
A great struggle has raged between the unliving Kindred of the East and West. In the midst of it, an ancient of the Third Generation rose in the Indian subcontinent, laying waste to a clan, destroying many elders and leading to a terrible detonation before it was brought low. This was The Week of Nightmares.
... And A Great Conflagration Ensues.
II In the Second Sign, the Blood Runs Thin...
Soon thereafter, reports of previously unknown generations of Kindred swept through the cities of the Camarilla and Sabbat. The youngest of vampires were able to sire, giving rise to half-undead freaks able to resist the sun and even mate with the living. This was The Time of Thin Blood.
...And Creatures Unknown Rise.
III In the Third Sign, the Grave Gives Up the Dead...
Then, the Sixth Maelstrom swept the underworld, scouring away all that had been built by the restless dead and sweeping them into oblivion. The angriest and most hateful rose in the flesh of their own corpses as the walking dead. They faced a motley group defending the living, imbued with the power to see the unnatural and the outrage to hunt it. This was the Reckoning.
...To Fight a War with the Quick.
IV In the Fourth Sign, the Sky Grows Red...
Those who knew the spirit worlds trembled as the Maelstrom spread with a new hellish object as its herald. A terrible red star appeared in the sky, growing brighter and brighter, and those who wore the skin of wolves called it Anthelios, the Anti-Sun, and despaired. Those who knew the ways of magic flocked to uncover its secrets and the Maelstrom ravaged them, eroding their souls and destroying their spirit-shelters. This was the time of Revelations.
...And the Wisest Fall.
V In the Fifth Sign, the Dead God Rises...
The Maelstrom swept through all the lands of the dead, even far-off Amenti, stronghold of the Egyptian dead. Osiris, who had slumbered for uncounted millennia, rose to see all he had built destroyed. He rose to the lands of the living, only to become ensnared in a mighty web. Those dead souls he carried with him - of those properly mummified according to the old rites - merged with others more freshly dead, together gaining the strength to complete the journey to see the ruined lands of the living. This was The Resurrection.
...And Begets His Children.
VI In the Sixth Sign, the Damned Are Loosed...
Finally, the Maelstrom grew so powerful as to crack and rend the gates of Hell itself. The devils and abominations of the Pit rose to Earth to fight their wars anew. In so doing they sparked an earthquake and terrible riots in Los Angeles, calling Lucifer himself out of his millennia of hiding. This was The Devil's Night.
...And The City of Angels Trembles and Burns.
When These Signs Have Passed The End Will Come.
