We're now just two days away from the return of the Shamrock Shake! Unfortunately, no word on if Uncle O'Grimacey will be back or if his rumored public statements supporting the IRA will keep him retired for another year.

I watch a lot of old ads. Some channels just upload the vids and that's it, some upload and watermark with their channel logo, some add an original opening bumper + watermark. And then some even add original content in between. I like just the ads by themselves, no intrusions.

I came across this tonight and was blown away because I didn't realize there was an entire campaign for the effort. Anyway, here's the 'booze' part of the campaign. I'll be on the watch for the gas huffing or shrooms version. lol. oh, and I upscaled it. youtu.be/-_4783ixooc

l.facebook.comRare Anti-Drug/Booze ad from 1985, 'Be an Original', 'Be In Control', upscaled.Most people have seen the companion to this: Right to Say No (to Drugs) ad from the 80s. Today, I came across this version which is clearly from the same production. This one warns about drinking & driving with a more chill vibe. I even upscaled it for you. Props to https://www.youtube.com/@AfterTheseMessages who originally uploaded it, along with other ads.
