Jesse, that's right out of Leave it to Beaver! So Americana. Bingo, RobertR! Anybody remember an animated 60-second spot featuring a man in a chair arguing with his stomach, who is sitting in another chair? Or how Benson & Hedges promised its customers a bathing-beauty figure (to the...

Mostly women in my building. All very nice. One is very friendly. I'm doing fine.
