Betty can't quit carving question marks on my wrists.
The Empire Carpet man died this week. I understand he's only a 'celebrity' in Chicago, and I grew up with those commercials. This man has been in my house and I know his phone number.lol I have his bobblehead for God sakes!
My cousin were born in North Carolina, but they're mommy is from Park Ridge...she used the Empire Carpet jingle to help them remember their phone number.
When I got the bobblehead, my brother and I fought about his name. I said Hank and he said Tom. So we asked two other people separately and one said Hank and the other said Tom. I thought it was hilarious that without even telling these other people what we thought, they both came up with the exact names we were arguing about.
His real name is Elmer.
