UNIDENTIFIED SINGERS: (Singing) Oh, I'd love to be an Oscar Mayer wiener. That is what I'd truly like to be 'cause if I were an Oscar Mayer wiener...


SIMON: Richard D. Trentlage was an ad man for large Chicago agencies in 1962 when he heard that Oscar Meyer was holding a wiener jingle 3 contest. He wrote a jingle, had his sons record it in their living room and won the contest with that jingle which would run in 21 countries until 2010. Richard Trentlage was no one-slogan-wonder. He went on to write, it sure doesn't taste like tomato juice, for V8 and buckle 4 up for safety, buckle up, for the National Safety Council.


He died this week at the age of 87 survived by his wife, two sons, two stepdaughters, a stepson, two daughters, 19 grandchildren, 10 great-grandchildren and lots of jingles 5.
