GENERAL MOTORS. G.M. takes the long-range view: fantastic models of future machines fell, slice and eat trees, and extrude four-lane highways; cities spring from the bush; hotels float underwater; moon hostels house whoever gets there. FORD. Instead of a Ford in your future, you can put one in your past-on the Magic Skyway, a superb bit of showmanship. In a Ford, you will scoot around Disney dinosaurs, watch a two-story Tyrannosaurus rex getting the best of a tough old Stegosaurus, and pop in on a happy household of hairy Homo sapiens...
...between animal and vegetable fats. But even that line was uncertain; it had to weave around to leave hard or saturated fats on one side and polyunsaturated fats on the other.

The feds cut in at the gefilte fish, hauled the bookies down to the courthouse for failure to buy their $50 gambling stamps, brought Costello along on a vagrancy charge, being, as the law says, "without visible means of support." Fortunately, his attorney explained that he was "retired," and even...
...merry old souls in the bar of John Jacob Astor's Hotel Knickerbocker, which can still be seen in Manhattan's Hotel St. Regis. Medieval nobility was a deathless theme for Parrish; even the caption for his 1921 Jell-O ad ran: "The King and Queen might eat hereof and Noblemen besides." Parrish was indeed, the pop artist...
