Dumb Ad of the Week:

[Seen during the Monday Night Football game on Thursday, Sep 12.]

(Gee ... Isn't Monday Night Football supposed to be played on Monday?)

Scene:

Pitchman extolling virtues of Tandy 1000 computer while yuppie executive
in the background is apparently working at the machine on his desk.

What's the exec doing?  Displaying screens from sort of spreadsheet type
program and TRANSFERRING INFORMATION FROM THE SCREEN TO A PAD OF PAPER
ON A CLIPBOARD WITH A PENCIL!!
