A true legend has passed away! ' Set it and forget it '

Do you remember the "Hair in a Can" cure for bald spots?  It was actually thick black enamel paint that is intended to be sprayed on to metal outdoor furniture; Ron Popeil just put a new label on the aerosol can to repurpose the product.

There is an amusing book about this sort of quirky American commercial ventures called: "Monster Trucks & Hair in a Can: Who Said America Doesn't Make Anything Anymore?"

Bottle and jug cutter.

RIP Rusty Hill.
Don't have time to check if there was a mention of him on this site. But this is mine. Will miss this Texas rocking legend. Thanks for the memorable concerts and albums. You will be missed.

Many, many years ago, I saw Ron on late night TV, pitching Hair in a Can (?).  It was a product you just sprayed on your bald spot and presto!  No one will be able to tell it's not your own hair!.  I still laugh when I think of him demonstrating.  The man had chutzpah.  No other way to describe him.  

if memory serves me right, the hair in a can was eventually called "GLH" [Good-Looking Hair]. i could use some o'that stuff right now!
