I'm delighted to find this on here! Thank you!!

It was not years after but three years before the boogie.

I swing around, stuff, catch, pop up, crank right, trim, squat and scoot!

About 6 perfect seconds go by... trimming, dropping and then I swing it up, over and glide to a graceful end. The guy with the camera yells, "Any time you're read

@tommymorey Yes what i was trying  to say was a few years after the paper surfboard you invented the Boogie Board.

Oh. Yes, now I see what you were trying to say. Language; weird stuff. Popeye is trying to kiss Olive Oil. She says, "Don't!" Then she says, "STOP!" Popeye doesn't stop. She repeats her plea, but after a while she's going, "Don't stop don't stop don't stop!"

"Any time you're ready!"

Totally missed the shot. Thereafter, a comedy of errors. Yet still, Al Jenkins, the producer, somehow patched together a workable commercial. Look closely and you'll note in the closing scene I'm paddling back out on half a board.
