( So did you ever get that promised pony? Go blind becaus...)
So did you ever get that promised pony? Go blind because you touched "it?" Get pregnant from a public toilet seat? Of course not! Lying is an art. For parents, however, it may be an absolute necessity. They dream up loving deceptions to preserve the innocence of childhood ("Daddy and I were just doing gymnastics"), to reassure us during those awkward ages ("You're beautiful"), or to keep us on the straight and narrow ("Boys only want one thing"). But they also pass on a whole encyclopedia of strange fictions that it takes us a lifetime to sort out. Now, former New York magazine columnist and Bloomberg Business News radio and TV commentator Bernice Kanner makes us laugh and wax nostalgic with the wise, unwise, or bizarre lies our parents told us. Health lies..."Cross your eyes and they'll stick that way." Sex lies..."You can get pregnant from sitting on a public toilet." Boy lies..."A man's word is his bond." Girl lies..."It's just baby fat." Life lies..."Everything works out for the best." Loving lies..."Someday you'll thank me for this."

When it comes to sex and love, how do you fit in? Are you...ahem, normal? Do you conform to the type, standard or pattern, the way MOST people do? In the bedroom--and elsewhere where we copulate--we're both entirely predictable and utterly surprising. *Would you try to conceive without your partner's consent if you wanted a baby? *What's sexier: suits, slacks, or jeans? *Do you slant to the right or left when kissing? *Have you ever lied to get a date? Marketing guru Bernice Kanner has spent many years researching how Americans love and lust to give us the statistics to satisfy our every curiosity. People talk about sex a lot--a worry about it even more. So pull up a chair and see how you compare...

The Super Bowl is not just the crowning glory of football. It is the ultimate arena for advertising-- the most watched, most anticipated, most expensive, most influential venue for major-league television commercials. It is the place for advertisers to be seen and to showcase their best work to some 800 million viewers around the world and is of intense interest to advertising, marketing, and branding professionals. Many tune in just for the ads, which cost millions to produce and air. From the Bud Bowl and "Whassup?" to "Mean" Joe Greene and Michael Jordan, the commercials have tickled the nation's funny bone and tugged at its heartstrings. The commercial spectacle has grown in magnitude along with the same itself to become an integral part of the annual event. This book is a tour of that advertising evolution--nothing the triumphs and embarrassing flops, lassoing behind-the-scenes stories of ads that are significant--because they broke new ground, inaugurated a major campaign, defined a new movement, set a milestone, or reflected life t the time in a unique way. Illustrated throughout with color stills from the commercials, "The Super Bowl of Advertisingwill bring back memories and remind us of how, for many, the commercials are the best part of the game.
