...probably a farmer. He's got cinch weed killer in the back of the truck. He's wearing a Chevy hat and chewing tobacco. There's nothing worse in the world than farming sometimes. His wife is all wrapped up in a windbreaker; a modified beehive hairdo. When they come in they seem embarrassed by the pretty, heavily made-up Ford girls, with their insincere cooing over all 124 cubic inches of a new Granada. But eventually they come over to the car anyway. The stand there. Elvis is singing an incredibly overproduced version of "Look Away to Dixieland...
...million people. Its first heroine, Farrah Fawcett, previously known primarily as a model for Ultra-Brite toothpaste and Wella Balsam shampoo, became almost overnight the biggest star in the business. Her poster image adorned thousands of dormitory walls, and thousands of gum-chewing adolescents imitated her long, layered hairdo. But celebrity was an ordeal. Armed guards had to be hired to keep the clutching fans at bay. But at fees of up to $30,000 per week, the Angels got rich. Producers Aaron Spelling and Leonard Goldberg got even richer, and so did the merchandisers who hawked the cornucopia...
Quite apart from its racy reputation, the show proved surprisingly appealing to female viewers, who are said to control the dial after the children go to sleep. Women saw what they were traditionally supposed to be interested in: new clothes (usually trousers), hairdos, makeup.

In the other corner, with the ruddy cheeks and the winning smile, is the champ. Rocky Balboa, played by Sylvester Stallone. The two slug it out in Stallone's new film, Rocky III, due in June 1982. During the fight scenes the pair sparred actively, pulling their punches when they could, but occasionally connecting hard. Mr. T. packs quite a wallop-he is a former bodyguard for such pugilists as Muhammad Ali and Leon Spinks. Still, Stallone...
...third, less serious case involved a woman contesting her hairdressers. The woman went for a fashionable "Bo Derek" cornrows hairdo, and, for $50 came away with a frizzy mess. Undaunted, the woman marched over to another salon where she got a much more satisfactory hairdo for a mere $20, but not before having her best friend take photos of the messy do for evidence. Handing before and after photos to the presiding judge, to the great amusement of the court, the difference was nonetheless striking enough for a reimbursement of her original $50 from the offending salon and the satisfaction...
