"I got a horse right here. The name is Paul Revere....

[Yavin4]

And here's a guy that says if the weather's clear
Can do, can do, this guy says the horse can do
If he says the horse can do, can do, can do."

1. "Guys and Dolls"?

2. Just me and my horsey and a quart of beer?

3. That was on last night.

We did the play in high school; good memories!

4. Fugue for Tinhorns

G&D was on TCM the other day. Quite enjoyed seeing it again.

5. Used by General Mills in 1967

back when show tunes were ubiquitously used in food ads:

8. "Do what most women do and use Gold Medal flour...."

Well, thanks...

9. There's an even worse Gold Medal ad on YouTube -

that I found when looking for the Fugue for Tinhorns ad - it's from 1962, featuring a young NYC office worker lass from Waterloo, IA, who goes home to her tiny city kitchen in her tiny city apartment to "be herself"

"Every woman needs to be herself at times... your answer? BAKING!"

11. Now, that's BAD.

Where did you find this?

12. I was searching for the Fugue for Tinhorns ad

with "gold medal can do" as my search term, and this one came up first in the search. I had to put "can do" in quotes to get the right ad.

6. Still my favorite musical ever

Too bad the film version strayed so far from the play. I wish there had been a film remake featuring the cast of the 1992 Broadway revival (Nathan Lane and Faith Ford).

10. Me too.

Those who know say if you've only seen the movie, you haven't seen G&D.
