You know those CraftMatic adjustable bed ads? The ones with the pudgy oldsters calling an operator and pleading, “May I be rushed free information on the CraftMatic Adjustable Beds by mail?” and the operator says, “Certainly, sir!” and doesn’t send it to them? Those have been around forever, and they’ll be around long after everyone now living is dust. I understand that you don’t change an old classic like that: it’s a comfort to play your old tape of “GI Joe: The Movie” and have your little sister say, “Hey, that commercial is on all the time during Sponge Bob Square Pants!” It lets you, if just for a moment, deny your own mortality. And denying mortality, what we all love the most! But there is one thing about that old classic that they should change. They’re offering a FREE 25-INCH COLOR TV if you buy the bed. FREE. 25 INCHES.
