Is this really goodbye??
I need your help.
Still...the small voice inside of me told me I may be running the risk of being placed in a guillotine for transforming the lyrics that way. So, I contacted the very, very, very, very, very big beer company to find out. It turns out I was right. I also have to remove the videos I placed alongside my lyrics. Boo. I am now typing this without a head. Dang guillotine. (Bless that typing teacher I had in high school for teaching me to type without looking at the keyboard). I now have to remove all references to the song's actual title AND the name of the beer on those past posts. I would like to continue posting my version of these commercials once a month, but I have to think of a different name for them and can no longer reference that big, big, big, big, big beer company.
That's why I need your help. What should it be? What should I call my version of the songs? It kind of has to go with the rhythm. Here are a few I have thought about...
These posts are among my most commented, most shared on FB and most tweeted. Although I love coming up with these jingles and they appear to be popular (among my stuff), should I just kick this particular idea to the curb? Should I just tell myself it was fun while it lasted? Will it just not be the same if I can't call it the title I had before?
Surely you can help me.
And I will call you Shirley.
If you have read this blog for the last few weeks, you will likely know that I have written my own jingles regarding various underappreciated jobs belonging to women all across this land. The jingles are set to the tune of a famous beer commercial. My versions were called "Ms. Salad Bar Stocker Lady" and "Ms. Wal-Mart Greeter and Receipt Highlighter". In the back of my mind, I suspected that I may have crossed a line when using a title for these series of songs that so closely resembled the "real" commercials. I posted them anyway because, after all, my blog is just a little blip in the big blogging world and who cares what I post anyway?

These Ladies Should Be Famous
Get These Women Some Peanuts
These Women Like the Green Bus
These Girlfriends Are Smart (blah!)
