On Stuff From Simpler Times - Part 1

A white person speaking jive, if done well and if done sincerely, is one of the most reliable ways to get laughs. Consider Barbara Billingsley with her "just hang loose, blood" from Airplane. Solid.

That is humor that stands the test of time (i.e., it's still funny, twenty-five years later).

Well, back in more recent simpler times, when everybody having email in their offices was relatively new and institutions had not yet erected the firewalls and enacted the policies and generally otherwise become reasonably successful at disrupting their employees' efforts to fritter away their work day, somebody made this Delta "Jive" Commercial.
