I feel so sorry for Sally Field's friend

[gsdx]

Having to set aside one whole day a week just so she can take her calcium pill.

The poor lady. It must be such an effort and such an inconvenience. I'm sure it's not something she can just jump into lightly. She must prepare herself for the chore - you know, like limbering up and stretching beforehand. I certainly would hate to see her strain herself unnecessarily. And then, of course, there is the inconvenience to her husband (or a suitable substitute) who must be on stand-by once a week in case Sally's friend can't open the child-proof bottle.

It's much easier for Sally - having to take her pill only once a month.

Gee-sus, Murphy!! Drink milk!!

Hmmm...I don't understand it...but I like it

...I think.

It's one of the Boniva commercials Sally Field does. She takes Boniva once a month whilst making it sound such an effort for her friend to take a pill once a week.

i wonder if she likes powdered milk.

better yet, i wonder if powdered milk can work for lactose intolerance.

^^This happens once in a blue MOOn. Next thing you know, all the MOOderators will turn into cows...

mikey

You like her!
You really like her!

I think it's the swallowing that's really her probelm---it's a woman thing.

Sally must have blown all of her "Mrs. Doubtfire" money.

I like to mix my powdered milk with milk. Tastes SO much MORE milkier.

Then, I'm not lactose intolerant.

Perhaps she'd be happier gnawing on and slavering over a shinbone or something?

Reminds me of Steven Wright's "Instant Water." Just open the can and add water.

The irony is that it is probably easier for an aging woman to remember to take a pill on a weekly basis.

Frankly, the only way I could ever remember to take a pill once a month would be by taking FocusFactor daily. I'm not sure if it works, but if it's free, it must be gooood!

Well, it was easier for Sally to decide on Boniva, then it was for her to decide what to wear.

She has a hard time picking out something to wear on the show, too. Did you see the episode when she had a date with her college professor and she wore that really short skirt her friend picked out for her?

gsdx...this thread was brilliant. I always think the same thing when I see that ad. After all, who can remember to take a pill once a week? That's just asking too much.

I HATE that lady!! Why would anyone in their right mind put someone with such an annoying nasal voice in their commercial? LOL
