Does everyone have the "SLOWSKY'S" Internet commercial?
 
Hi all,

Here in California we have the "Slowsky's" in our local cable internet commercial. They are a pair of Turtles. They are Mr. and Mrs. Slowsky and they "like" to go slow. They even try to make their internet slow by pushing their laptop out to the edge of their yard. Mrs. Slowsky tells Mr. Slowsky to Push It, as he's pushing the lap top further out to the edge of the yard so the service is slower. He turns around and tells her, "You Push It, Push It Real Good" It's soooo cute!

Anyway, they call me Mrs. Slowsky at work because I'm always walking slow! And today they gave me a turtle that hangs on my computer monitor! (I have been collecting turtles for about 10 years anyway)...

In another post I mentioned that the girls at work give me a "head start" to the cafeteria because I walk much slower than they do. They just like to pick on me because I'm younger and prettier than they are! :p

I love that commercial!
 
Sure beats being called a 'dinosaur' tho..[I was only 30 at the time] just cause I'd been at a company for 10 years.... I was considered the 'old lady'.

Slow and steady wins the race! - j

Wait till i tell my 29 yr. old son about this it will make him laugh.
The Slowskys huh??? He had Thyroid Cancer at the age of 12.
Loosing your whole Thyroid,massive radiation and being 12. The
friends at school,and there was a bunch called him the Turtle
they would give him 10 mins ahead to get to classes ,everything.
Then everybody started getting him turtles,he has the biggest
collection,when they bought there house they got a extra room
for them. he lives in Mpls.Mn now with his wife and my Grand doggies.
He is the one who helped us all be strong and get on with our lifes.

I LOVE the Slowskys!!!! They slay me!! I used to wait for the Geico caveman commercials, but now I'm all about the Slowskys! :) I heard there is going to be a sitcom launched in the fall based on the Geico cavemen. Hmmm, I love the ads, but 30 mins. of them...I don't know. Guess we'll see! ~~~Jess:)
