Time Quote by Stan Blits
““Many a refrigerator has tipped over on a model. Many a price has revealed itself at the wrong time. Many a trip wall has come crashing down to the hard concrete floor. Many a basket with jewelry has flown in too fast and swung back and forth like Tarzan's vine. Bob once struggled with a prize on a game called "Squeeze Play.””
