ManyMoose, No, you have it backward <g>, and I still LOL when I remember that commercial. The aliens had taken the little girl onto their spaceship, with the intent to carry her away with them, but the little girl wouldn't shut up. She gabbed on and on, extolling the virtues of flying United Airlines. The changes in expression in those three green eyes on those big shaggy faces, going from bemusement to bewilderment to boredom to annoyance to a few other expressions of consternation, are what made the commercial so hilarious. Somewhere during the commercial, the three aliens had acquired cups of steaming coffee, as they were suddenly having trouble keeping their three eyes opened. The commercial ended with the aliens booting the little girl off their spaceship, with the little girl still yapping about how great United Airlines is. - Holly
