Scentator Al Franken, Circa 1976

July 15, 2009

So, how does a former Saturday Night Live writer make the leap from late-night comedian to state senator (for argument’s sake, we’ll allow that this is actually a leap)? For Al Franken, the answer might lie in an olfactory tip he gleaned from a pal about thirty years earlier: “Don’t worry about your breath and your armpits, Al. It’s your personality that stinks!”

Enter “Heavy Changes Ego Spray,” which “comes in fifteen different personality types including Little Boy, Rock Star, Aggressive, and Petulant.”

Okay, okay. Early-Endorphin-Branding™-in-an-Aerosol-Can may not have really garnered the votes - or even the girl - for Franken, but this clip from the 1976 film Tunnel Vision is still a click-worthy giggle for Franken fans…for the hair alone!
