Sometimes jingles work waaaay past their due date. My husband went to BierKraft and instead of getting [La Trappe Quadruple](http://www.latrappe.nl/index1.html)– sorry, the English page isn’t up yet. Maybe Coldie can translate for me-- or a [Stella](http://www.stella-artois.com/) he brought home a bottle of Reingold. You know why? Because that stupid song was going through his head, you know the one.  
_My beer is Reingold the dry beer  
Speak of Reingold whenever you try beer  
It’s refreshing, not sweet  
It’s the extra dry treat  
Won’t you try extra dry  
Reingold beeeeer!_

Good thing he wasn’t thinking  
_The most rewarding flavor in this man’s world  
For people who are having fuuuun  
Schaefer is the one beer to have  
If you’re having more than one_

I am not without my own sins. I bought a pair of jeans and didn’t know whether I knew where I was going so I knew what to wear or whether I wanted something to come between me and my Calvins.

Any old jingles ever come back to haunt you?

P.S. What jeans was Debra Harry singing about when she sang “When you know where you’re going, you know what to wear”?
