True fact: One of John & Faith Hubley's best-known creations was the old "Ruffles have Ridges" commercial, the voice of which was none other than Georgia. Just one of the tidbits I picked up in Alias days. The drummer of Hypnolovewheel was the kid who said "He sunk my battleship!", so we were a regular hotbed of child stars. -- Brett, who also went to college with Emily ------------------------------ Date: Wed, 15 Aug 2001 17:49:53 -0600 From: Stewart Mason Subject: Re: [loud-fans] RE: Hubleys At 07:41 PM 8/15/01 -0400, Brett Milano wrote: > True fact: One of John & Faith Hubley's best-known creations was the old >"Ruffles have Ridges" commercial, the voice of which was none other than >Georgia. Big brother Mark Hubley will forever be known as Marky Maypo thanks to that '50s "I want my Maypo!" commercial. (Maple-flavored instant oatmeal? Bleah. No wonder they needed a memorable commercial, they were screwed otherwise!)

I never would have made the connection, though. He's busy raising a family these days. If I ever see him again, I'll have to ask him how he feels about maple-flavored instant oatmeal. - --dana ________________________________________________________________ GET INTERNET ACCESS FROM JUNO!

It's maple *flavored*, which means it's really sweet and smells vaguely like a scratch and sniff sticker from the Vermont Tourism Bureau. 2. It's instant oatmeal, which means it has the flavor and consistency of wallpaper paste. Now, cook up a pan of steel-cut oats, throw in a handful of raisins, a pat of butter, a drizzle of heavy cream, and a swirl of maple syrup around the top, and you got yourself a breakfast. But that and maple flavored instant oatmeal are two very different things. (Or conversely, you can get one of the breakfast specialties from my local favorite breakfast place, The Range Cafe: a Fiestaware bowl filled with oatmeal, covered with walnuts and strawberries, and -- in an act of sheer culinary genius -- topped with a scoop of cinnamon ice cream that melts into the oatmeal, giving it perfectly controlled doses of cream, sugar and cinnamon.)
