I never could figure out what they were saying after “groovin,” but I remember something about a horse. “Whacking-that-horsehide-harder,” I said to Emily after I played her the clip. “I wonder who came up with that one?”
“Someone who was clearly sexually frustrated,” she replied.

Oh, and while I was at it, I found an old ad for the Reggie Bar too.
