Oil, oil. The energy of our lives.

If there could be a commercial advocating the energy of our lives, like the pro-cotton commercials, I think it would go something like this:

(music up, singing, probably Aaron Neville) Oil, oil... the energy of our lives...

SUVs dancing like synchronized swimmers in a wheat field ready for harvest. The morning sun drifts over the haze of the field.

fade to scene of Hummers in the desert driving up and around dunes in slow motion...

Oil tune pot down.

ANNCR: Oil, the fossil fuel energy of our lives. The energy we depend on to bring our children home from school.

fade to scene of large school bus stopping to drop off kids, in slow-motion.

ANNCR: The energy we depend on to keep our homes warm in the winter.

fade to scene of large mansion with family cozily lounging in large wingback chairs with designer winter wear, sweaters, etc.

ANNCR: The energy we depend on to bring us the goods and products we need to live day by day.

fade to scene of large Wal-Mart semi trailer truck driving in to back of store to drop off shipment.

ANNCR: The energy we depend on to visit loved ones near and far.

fade to scene of plane landing and child looking out window with parents looking fondly at child and out window, too. Then, fade to car driving up to a proverbial grandparents' home with the grandparents waiting by the street for their family. The kids jump out of the car and give grandparents hugs.

ANNCR: Oil, the energy of our lives.

Pot up music-- "Oil, oil... the energy of our lives."
