There was a famous TV cook in the UK in 1950's called Fanny Craddock (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fanny_Cradock), who together with her Husband Johnny were once making donuts. As they finished Johnnie uttered the immortal line, "And I hope all your donuts look like Fanny's".
(P.S. In the UK Fanny is word for 'front bottom', not a rear end)

I wonder if all your critics will be asking the "monologues" author to change the name to " The coochie-coo monologues"?
For a business owner with a vagina, you got big balls, sis!

Brownies?
Do they use Brownien Motion to calulate the random motion of advertising dispersement from and to young male minds (yes, see Wikipedia for the intuitive metaphor using a hot air balloon/head) or just the dissemination of seeds.

I like mine with everything on it. Nothing like that salty taste.

Ed,
then might I suggest instead of the Krakower Jewish Bagel the Catholic soft prezel in the form of a Kümmel Stange (Fennel Seed Schtick). It has the added feature of being boiled in lye, plus the position of panis quadragesimalis untwisted and straight forward. Newton and Kopernicus. and who knows: Keppler? might get their knickers and snickers in a knot.

I heard about a blonde who got cup of coffee at 7/11. There was a contest where you won a prize when you pulled the tab off the bottom of your coffee cup. She pulled her tab...and went CRAZY...screaming "I won a motorhome, I am so exicted!" The manager thought, I dont remember giving away a motorhome..."let me see your tab..."
It read- win a bagle-

Tim
Just caught this as I was in New York speaking at the PSFK conference the day you posted it. As you know, I live in Boise now... And I have to say one thing about River City Bagels... They suck. They don't taste like bagels, and they certainly don't taste like c**t's. I will find out who is responsible for theis and go round and kick their arse. You have my word on it.
Cheers/George

As a resident of Boise, I fully endorse this product and/or service!

Hey George,
i looked up that place on the internet. They do have a bakery with pastries. And the owner has a great translatable german last name. Since I am a failing designer, but indeed a good baker, maybe they could open up a branch in the other River City here in the Queen City of the Midwest. I'd could get a job then.
My first suggestion-- the Donauwellen (danube waves) cake I just made for a birthday treat: It's chocolate and vanilla wave with cherries poked throughout the entire cake, topped with a butter creme, then whip cream, and a sprinkling of cocoa. I need to start networking with bakers.

So, what are we eating now, bagels or vaginas? I love both, so, I'll take a dozen of each, with different fillings and colors, errr, flavors... Yeah that's it... flavors...

Holy crap you people are stupid. It's not saying Bagels are vaginas for godsakes. Most of you here can't seem to grasp that. Man, this ad is brilliant, I work in advertising and it's brilliant.

Dang.... you're supposed to eat them. I was sleeping with one for two weeks. Pretty rough going if you know what I mean.

I find this add quite distorbing and I am saddened that some of you have such sick minds

When I eat a bagel, I like to take my time and enjoy it. Sometimes I will spread open the bagel and lick the excess cream cheese around the outside. If I'm feeling naughty, I might even use my tongue to spell the alphabet.

The VM play presents the sexual seduction of an underage girl as a happy initiation. It's a crime, people.
