    JM>   I'll watch the ones from various companies and its always "this is   
    JM> the best car ever made, not some piece of junk like we made last year   
    JM> you need to trade in right now for this great new car".  Well, that's   
    JM> the gist of the ads.  :)   
      
     Years ago in Nashville, Tennessee...they had a park called Opryland USA.   
   The only thing that survives of it is the building where they perform The   
   Grand Ole Opry every week (it's the longest running show, first started    
   nearly 100 years ago, by WSM Radio, Clear Channel 650). The radio station   
   was originally owned by an insurance company, and their slogan of "We   
   Serve Millions" was the inspiration for the station's callsign. It has   
   always had a country-western format.   
      
     But, at Opryland, they had one ride called the Tin Lizzie...where you   
   got to "drive" remakes of those classic cars.    
      
     Changing fortunes, etc. closed the park, and it was razed...and then   
   replaced by a shopping mall. Yet, so many shopping areas and malls now   
   are boarded up and vacant.   
      
     The original home of the Grand Ole Opry, the Ryman Auditorium, in   
   downtown Nashville, was originally a Baptist Church...it still has   
   the stained glass windows. Sometimes, they refer to it as "The Mother   
   Church".
