Respect Authority

House Peters Jr., a TV actor who became the original Mr. Clean in Procter & Gamble’s commercials for household cleaners, died Wednesday. He was 92. 

Mr. Peters, who died of pneumonia in the Motion Picture and Television Fund Hospital in Los Angeles, also had other acting roles, but according to CNN, his “most memorable” was as Mr. Clean in the 1950s. (Note: I’ve yet to decide whether or not that’s depressing).

Pneumonia or not, I think someone should be hauling the Scrubbing Bubbles in for a few choice questions. Just look at those eyes.
