someone in coach for lunch.

Oh, ta-ta.

- See how easy it is? - [Biting.]
Ow! Food can be your friend.
But this food was my friend.
That's the spirit! Now, get off those patooties.
It's time to exercise! I think I'm alone here.
I thought you were a big, strong soccer team.
Hey, I've got an idea.
Come on! Let's play a game! You better try to stop me! I'm gonna score! [Gasps.]
Tony! Oops.
I almost forgot.
You shouldn't play with your food.
.
.
not when you can exercise with it! Look! I found a Thigh Master! [Grunting.]
I can feel my buns turning to steel.
Gee, Richard, you're really startin' to look good to me now.
You bet I am.
- Nice and lean.
- Thanks! - Succulent.
- Stop it.
I'm blushing.
- Delicious.
- Uh-oh.
Someone's combining fruits with their proteins.
[Screaming.]

My name is Loomis Simmons.
Have you ever spent hundreds of dollars going to the gyms? Have you spent thousands of dollars on fancy home exercise equipment? I hope so, 'cause now you can spend.
.
.
a little bit more on the new.
.
.
Loomis Simmons Power Stretch.
Now, these other machines have lots of movin' parts.
.
.
hundreds of parts that can break.
The Power Stretch is simplicity itself.
It look like an ordinary spring, but how could it be? Springs don't cost this much.
Now, let me show you a few of the exercises you can do.
.
.
with the Loomis Simmons Power Stretch.
There's the bend.
.
.
the upward bend.
.
.
the downward bend.
Now, don't confuse these with the traditional bend.
That's completely different.
And, most important of all, there's the wobble.
Ooh, yeah.
See, this will trim all the fat from all up under your arms and your stomach.
.
.
and it'll keep you from gettin' cancer.
Now, there are 20 different exercises in all.
.
.
though I did have to repeat a few just to make 'em come out even.
But, heck, you don't have to take my word for it.
Listen to what a few of my satisfied customers have to say.
My breasts are firmer than they've been in years.
.
.
thanks to Power Stretch.
After long day chopping suey.
.
.
the Power Stretch is perfect exercise.
[Shouts Mock Chinese.]
I'm with them.
You know, a lot of people say to me.
.
.
"Loomis Simmons, why can't I just go to the hardware store.
.
.
buy me a spring of my own for a lot less money?" And I say, "Shut up!" Let's face facts.
You're not gonna stick with any exercise program.
So why buy somethin' that's just gonna take up the whole room? But the Power Stretch, all you got to do.
.
.
is stick it in the closet and forget it's there.
The Power Stretch is $99.
95.
But, if you order now, I'm gonna include my special.
.
.
Loomis Simmons Subliminal Weight Loss tape.
All you gotta do is play this in the background all day.
.
.
and you will lose the urge to eat unhealthy foods.
[Loomis On Tape.]
Yo, fatty.
Big, salt pork butt.
[Mocking Pig Snorting.]
This tape alone is worth thousands of dollars.
But I'm not done! I'm not done! I'm goin' crazy today! If you order today, I'm gonna give you free of charge.
.
.
the Power Mini-Stretch.
Yes, that's right.
You use this when you're walkin' down the street.
.
.
on the bus, after work, anytime, in your car.
That's right.
Have the body you always dreamed of.
Or, at least, have a spring.

Issue one: The war in Bosnia.
Dionne, what about Bosnia? One moment, Jay.
[Whispering, Indistinct.]
Well, my psychic friend said the war in Bosnia is in for a stormy February.
.
.
but watch out for romance and job opportunity on the 8th.
Cher? Oh, I think the Bosnians will definitely prevail.
They've got that sort of upper-body definition and hard buns.
.
.
that can only come from.
.
.
whoo.
.
.
a good diet, exercise, and a scientifically-designed aerobic workout.
Who says all bimbos are blonde? Roscoe, Bosnia? Well, now, do you see this bald spot here? Huh? You see it? Do you see it? Well, watch this, huh? Watch this.
- Oh, my eyes! - Huh? What do you say now? What do you say? What about the Bosnians, Roscoe? The Bosnians, Serbs.
.
.
It works on everybody.
What's your solution, Jay? I say we juice 'em.
That's the beauty of a Juice Weasel.
It's patented filtering system separates the Bosnians from the Serbs.
Jessica, Bosnia.
.
.
What do we do? Well, it's funny you should ask, Jay.
.
.
because I recently went to Bosnia.
.
.
to talk to some of the people there.
Let's take a look.
Hi, girls.
Tell us your secret fantasy.
- Well, I guess my fantasy would be.
.
.
- Yeah? - To fall into a foxhole.
.
.
- Right.
- With a really sensitive, handsome Serb.
- Right.
- Then, while we're in the foxhole.
.
.
- Yeah? You know.
That's great.
Issue two: Somalia.
Cher? Well, you can never be too rich or too thin.
.
.
so they're already halfway there.
Jessica, Mogadishu.
Oh.
Gesundheit.
I've juiced grapes bigger than your brain.
Now, what is it the Somalians need? Fiber, vitamins, minerals.
.
.
the source of life.
And it's right under their noises.
Actually, it's under their feet.
Sand! With just a little ingenuity and a juicer.
.
.
you can turn a desert into a dessert.
That's the beauty of the Weasel.
[Gagging, Coughing.]
Mmm! Famine? Frankly, I don't see the problem.
Roscoe? JuicerJay, I'm gonna take an apple.
Now, look at this.
A half-eaten apple.
Now, watch.
What if you could make this apple whole again? - Watch it.
- Oh, my eyes! Huh? Huh? What do you say, huh? What do you say? - What do you say? - I say, predictions.
Dionne? I predict Elvis will reappear, aliens will visit the White House.
.
.
and, Wilt Chamberlain, don't worry.
It's only a rash.
Wilt, call me later.
We'll talk juice.
Cher? My next boyfriend will be born on Tuesday.
Whoo! You're a tramp.
Roscoe? I predict that these ladies will find my new underarm hair irresistible.

It's the second highest source of protein around.
- But it tastes just like the first.
- Mm-hmm.
Now, we have looked at lots of different workout tapes.
.
.
- but none of'em really work for us.
- Mm-hmm.
Like that one.
.
.
that Cindy Crawford workout.

- They should have called it "Cindy Crawfish.
" - Ooh! - Then there was Jane Fonda's Ultimate Workout.
- Mm-hmm.
- Hated it.
- Ha.
.
.
Yes, we did.
They could have just called that A Fish Called Fonda.
Then, of course, there was little Dick Gregory's diet.
You know, I always do what Dick say.
I think you supposed to.
Now, before you begin your workout.
.
.
you always got to have you a good stretch.

- Blayne! Blayne! Blayne! - And five, and six.
.
.
- What? - Why you keep lookin' to the side? Because I gotta make sure ain't nobody's coming up behind me.
Ooh! Oh, well, now it's time to move to the bench press.
Now, weight liftin' can be very dangerous.
That's why you always got to have you a spot.
Garçon! Ooh, I gotjust five words to describe that.

scrump-dee-il-ish-us.
- Mm-mmm! - I need to get me one of these spots for my bedroom.

" Go ahead.
[Squealing.]
Come on.
Feel the burn.
Come on.
I'm flamin'! Get it off me! Aah! Oh! Oh! Could you put this in my car, please? Gee, I am parched.
You know, it's always good to replenish all your fluids any way you can.
Oh, water boy? Please, sir, I'd like some more.
And no workout would be complete without workin'.
.

And release.

Just breathe.
Don't forget to breathe.
