Post #30 As Seen On TV...

Most people know Billy Mays, the obnoxiously loud junk-peddler who shouts throughout a commercial. Oxi-clean, Kaboom, Orange-Glo: He lends his recognizable vocal performances to more than 20 different products.



But Mr. Mays might consider retirement. Vince Offer has come to town. You know Vince. He is the cocky, sharped-toothed salesman of Sham-Wow and the Slap-Chop.



My wife jokes about how I’ve become kind of obsessed with Vince. But it is kind of like watching a horrific automobile accident. I just can’t turn away when I hear that famous line: “Hey it’s Vince with Sham-wow, and you’ll be saying ‘Wow” every time you use this towel.”

Something about this guy is entertaining. I don’t know if it’s his fast-talking, his condescending tone, or his stink-eye. I think he would make a great sit-com character.
