Wow! And the scary thing is that I remember that spot... very well.

Notice the soft sell approach of the commercial? Very common in that
day. Not at all like today, where they blast your senses in any way
possible, and you frequently can't even remember what the spot was for
after it's over.

Heh, I remember 'farfugnugen'...
I remember giggling at irony of "Drivers Wanted"
And I'll sure remember the current 'Reck-a-Ricer'..

And I aint about to buy the product... so what does that say about me!
