Today at Julie & Chris's New Years party, Shando, an important member of the Maudit Readership, was sharing his amusement at my story about the split-screen ham/phone sex television experience in Barcelona. I recalled that the ham promotion was part of Spain's "as seen on TV" website, which in Spanish is directoacasa.es. Bob was taking a nap during the ham and the phone sex (a pity really) but he did manage to see a similar promotion for a ladies girdle product called "Body Triple Accion."
The ad, much to Bob's amusement, begins with a woman grabbing her tubby midsection, lamenting her "michelines." Michelines sounds like the Michelin Tire Man, known around Europe for having many rolls on the abdominal area. Since then, Bob has been referring to his belly as his "michelines," even though he has denounced the Body Triple Accion as an inadequate product.
See the ad for yourself!
And when your done grabbing your michelines, watch the ham video. (sans phone sex)
