Excellent!!! And here's another one:

I know the woman who sang the song in the Rice-a-roni commercial: RICE-a-roni, The San Franciso Treat.

Her name is Jackie Ward and she's in her 80s now. I used to hang with her son Kevin (another story--one of the original Mc Donald's kids) when we both attended UC San Diego. Actually, we lived in this all-gay household in Del Mar in the 80s, and we're still in touch via Facebook now.

The Rice-a-Roni spot is the longest running commercial in history. Jackie made a fortune off that. She also sang for Dinah Shore in all the bank commercials, and for Shirley Jones in the Partridge Family.

The Wards, the whole lot of them, are music copyists, proving that the "hidden" people in The Industry is who really make the money--and keep it.
