Blago Shampoo...It's Bleepin' Golden! - Page 3
Well before he was arrested on corruption charges last December, Blagojevich was known for his thick head of perfectly-sculpted hair. A psychologist even told the Chicago Sun-Times in December 2008 that Blagojevich's hair might be a sign of narcissistic personality disorder.
Back in October 2007, Blagojevich appeared live on the CBS 2 Morning News with Roseanne Tellez, the late Randy Salerno, and comedian Jeff Garlin, for a special show about the Division champion Cubs. Garlin was teasing Blagojevich about his hair even back then.
"Governor, do you wake up in the morning and go, 'Look at my hair! Just look at it!'?" Garlin asked.
"Yeah, and then I comb it," Blagojevich replied.
"Bleep'n Golden" refers to Blagojevich's alleged description of the open U.S. Senate seat that President Barack Obama had vacated when, according to prosecutors, the deposed governor was trying to sell the seat. But Blagojevich did not say "bleep'n." That was a censored quote from U.S. Attorney Patrick Fitzgerald.
This whole things reminds me of Bill Beer and Chia Pets ("Ch-ch-ch-chia!") from back in the 70's. Even the black and gold bottle of Blago Shampoo has that retro look. Who would have thought back in 1975 that Gary Daul, the inventor of the Pet Rock, would end up being a millionaire. So who knows where this can go. Can you glue some googly eyes to the bottle?
Although I honestly don't think Dennis Flan will become a millionaire from selling Blago shampoo, AND conditioner, even though it's Bleepin' Golden, he will undoubtedly have his 15 minutes of fame and maybe then some.
