(Sorry to those of you too old -- or young --to get the joke.)

Gene Simmons is one thing... But If I was Abramson I would be very, um, cautious about associating myself with the PeeWee Herman brand. :doh:

I actually remember the "Runaway" movie... kind of a lame sci-fi flick with Tom Selleck.
 
Hi,

I was banned from replying to another message. This is to see if I can reply to this thread.

Enjoy,

Jim

Well, it worked here. I guess the other thread just did not like me.

Is Vaughn going into competition with me as "The Old Goat of Family WoodWorking?"

Jim, the goat is from a poster a long-time friend of mine has had since high school in the '70s. The caption on the poster says "Hi, I'm Fred. I'm your computer date". For a period of time this friend and I were roommates, and Fred was displayed on the bathroom wall right above the toilet. Now he is part of my friend's office decoration. :D

Gene Simmons, marketing genius. Child of a Holocaust survivor.

Did you ever notice the resemblance between the KISS logo and the Schutzstaffel [Nazi SS] logo? Look at the "SS" in both.

Maybe I'm crazy, but it sure seems wrong to me.

Now that you mention it....I hadn't thought of that before. Do you think they knew that beforehand? Afterwards? I mean if Gene Simmons was Jewish.....:rolleyes:

Interesting. I didn't check it out but is it a fact that he is the son of a holocaust survivor? If so it's in pretty poor taste. In fact if it's modeled after the SS logo it's in pretty poor taste no matter what religion you are.
 
The lightning bolt Kiss logo was designed by Ace Frehley. Dunno if the band members saw the similarity to the Nazi symbol at first, but they surely were aware of it shortly thereafter.

Bad taste? Yes. But when was Kiss ever about good taste? They wanted to be different, edgy, and over the top. Heaven knows they needed something, because their music wasn't anything to write home about. More marketing, in my opinion. ;)
