rarely look out
vibrations don’t titillate
same bat time...same bat channel*

From 1960’s television show “Batman.” This is the way they would advertise.
Batman and Robin leap through the smashed vault door.
Robin: " Holey moley, Batman, You were right! They're robbing the bank!"
Batman: " Right you are, Robin. What a fiendishly clever criminal prank!"
Holey Moley: " So you spotted me, Twin Tumors! I'm so tired of you two!"
HM:" As the mole turns black, so we'll beat you two... black and blue!"
R: " Batman, he's using his hairy blemish gun to trap us in welts!"
B: " Robin, Quick! Use the anti-mole spray can in your utility belt!"
R: " It's working! Batman! We've stopped every hairy growth cold!"
B: " Yes, Robin! Surrender, you fiend and drop the bills in your fold!"
HM: " You've made your re-marks for the last time ! That's certain!"
HM: " Get them, my big blemishes! Get these vermin or it's curtains!"
Wart, Scar, Scab, Corn, Stretch Mark and Birth Mark lunge at our heroes!
We fade out to Bat Music and the sounds of POW! OOOFF! BAM! and BOP!...
Tune in tomorrow . Same Bat Time. Same Bat Channel.
