Why did they include a brand name for "recliners" but not for the others? I can remember those old John Cameron Swayze ads for Timex watches.

I'd JTQ also. My guess was either "sour" or "bitter" but couldn't decide between the two.

I couldn't remember this story, either.

Alas, we're not paying enough attention to the Bob Juch News Network.

I would not hesitate to play the second-choice spike on this one. What I know about S&TC can be tallied on one hand. But among that knowledge is that Carrie was associated with somebody known as "Big". If this MAWG, who doesn't give a rip about the series, knows that, then the axiom about the strong second ATA choice comes into play here, no questions asked.
