Murphy has has own nail making business, and he wants it to be the best in
the world. So he goes to a top advertising agency to have them create a
marketing strategy. The agency assures him they can create a memorable
advertising campaign in a week.

The following week Murphy goes back to the agency and is shown in to a
small theatre to view the finished commercial.

The lights go off and screen springs into life.

On the screen is a sunset over a desert. The camera pans around to a hill
and zooms in to the top of the hill. At the top of the hill is a wooden
pole. The camera climbs up the pole to where a couple of feet are hanging.
It then carries on up to a man's torso, up to his face, and there is Jesus'
face. It then moves along an outstretched arm, to a hand pinned firmly to a
stake by a gleaming nail. On the nail is proudly emblazoned:

"Murphy's Nails" A caption appears on the screen

"Murphy's nails - they'll never let you down"

Murphy is outraged, "You'll get me shut down," he screams, "That's
blasphemous! I'll give you a week to come up with a decent campaign or I'll
go elsewhere. "

A week later Murphy goes back to the advertising agency and is shown into
the theatre. "This had better be an improvement" he warns. The lights dim
and the screen leaps into life.

On the screen is a Roman street with lots of people milling about. The
camera then pans quickly to left to see Jesus running like hell being
pursued by two Roman guards. The camera then zooms in on the two guards, to catch one saying to the other "This would never have happened if we'd used Murphy's nails."
