01:27you
01:57Oh, brother.
02:27When AT&T wrote the book on quality control, a lot of people read it.
02:50In fact, they studied it.
02:52Today, some of the most quality-conscious companies in the world use the AT&T handbook as a guide.
02:59The fact that so many companies depend on us for quality means a lot.
03:04The fact that so many people do means even more.
03:07Whether it's telephones, information systems, long-distance services, or computers, AT&T is the right choice.
03:17When the going gets rough, you need a tough 4x4 like this.
03:21The 86 Ford Ranger STX.
03:24This year, only Ranger offers this new electric shifting system.
03:27You just punch a button at any speed and shift from two-wheel to ground-grabbing four-wheel drive.
03:32And talk about power.
03:34Ranger's new 2.9 liter V6 has the most horses of any small truck.
03:38The tough 86 Ford Ranger 4x4.
03:41The best-built American trucks are built for tough.
03:45Get this.
03:46Lists of people who eat Kellogg's Corn Flakes.
03:49Let's eat those.
03:50Charles Bronson.
03:52Eats Corn Flakes.
03:53So does Christy Brinkley.
03:54George Brett.
03:55Beach Boy.
03:55All of them.
03:56George Benson.
03:57Robbie Benson.
03:57Eats Corn Flakes.
03:58Yes!
03:59Good old Kellogg's Corn Flakes.
04:01Their great taste and solid nutrition gum is no surprise.
04:04Mmm.
04:05Diane Carroll.
04:06Jamie Lee Curtis.
04:07You guys getting hungry?
04:08Yes!
04:09The surprise is the people who eat them.
04:11I'll drop those Kellogg's Corn Flakes now!
04:15Good morning.
04:15Aetna knows all employees are not all alike.
04:20So for our clients, we provide flexible benefit plans.
04:24Instead of carbon copy life insurance, he doubles his coverage at the group rate.
04:29Instead of me too medical, she raises her deductible and puts the difference in dental.
04:34Instead of duplicating a husband's coverage, she shifts premiums into tax deferred savings.
04:39Work with the best in the business.
04:41Aetna!
04:42Peter the Great will continue following these messages.
04:52The courage.
04:54You can kick me out of here, but I ain't quick.
04:56The love.
04:58I've loved you since I met you.
05:00The conflict.
05:01What kind of a human being are you?
05:03The pain.
05:04I got nowhere else to go!

05:54Taurus, now there's an American car with the shape and the feel we've never seen before.
06:20Taurus, now there is a personal car that has exactly what we've been looking for.
06:26For all of us who will not compromise, Ford, listen.
06:30Ford created Taurus for us.
06:32For us.
06:34Taurus.
06:35For us.
06:37Taurus.
06:38For us.
06:39Have you driven a board lately?
06:42It's the racing showdown we've been waiting for.
06:47Between old Spick and Span.
06:49And new no-rinse Spick and Span.
06:52And they're off.
06:53Heck, Don, I gotta say, I'm real impressed with new no-rinse Spick and Span.
06:56It's got the same great cleaning power, but doesn't streak like you-know-who.
07:02They're in the home stretch.
07:03And old Spick and Span.
07:05In a tail span, it's going back to rinse.
07:08That makes new Spick and Span our winner.
07:10It's faster to the finish because there's no rinsing.
07:14Crisco oil's light taste brings remarkable lightness to stir-frying.
07:17Remarkably light.
07:19Ooh, delightfully light.
07:20Ah!
07:21Crisco oil's light taste sets the flavor free.
07:24Mixed to corn oil, specially made Crisco oil looks lighter, is lighter.
07:28But it's really Crisco's light taste that brings out the true flavor of stir-frying.
07:32With no greasy taste.
07:34Crisco oil's light taste sets the flavor free.
07:38Now available in the new 64-iron strip-free bottle.
07:45I have a small business problem.
07:48My brother-in-law, Milton, couldn't sell tea in China.
07:51So I called the small business experts at AT&T,
07:54and they showed us new ways to use long distance to open a whole new territory.
07:59What did you sell today, Milton?
08:006,000 switches.
08:02Check the inventory.
08:02I have a small business problem.
08:08Call AT&T Long Distance Services.
08:10We can help.
08:11AT&T.
08:12The right choice.
08:13Peter the Great will continue following these messages.
08:21Wednesday on Highway to Heaven.
08:23Who's our sign for her?
08:24She's my wife.
08:25With the love of his past life, make Jonathan forget he's an angel.
08:28You only live once, you know what I mean?
08:30Wednesday.
08:30This is NBC News Digest.
08:35Here is Chuck Scarborough, NBC News.
08:39Good evening.
08:40In a State of the Union address, President Reagan did not stop at the borders of the Union tonight
08:44as he called for a strong defense, aid to rebels in Nicaragua, Angola, and Afghanistan,
08:49and more manned exploration of space.
08:51But he also extolled the American family as a source of national renewal, and he urged
08:55an overhaul of welfare.
08:57I'm talking about real and lasting emancipation, because the success of welfare should be judged
09:04by how many of its recipients become independent of welfare.
09:09The President also asked for a plan to help people bear the cost of catastrophic illness.
09:14He restated his opposition to a tax hike, and spoke out for school prayer and against abortion.
09:18In a taped rebuttal, several Democrats accused Mr. Reagan of being unwilling to make hard
09:22cuts, including defense, and of lowering the hopes of less affluent Americans.
09:27Now this.
09:29Three leading toothpastes.
09:30Which jail not only fights plaque, but also cleans teeth better than the others?
09:34It's not Crest or Colgate.
09:36It's Checkup.
09:37Laboratory test show Checkup cleans teeth better than these other toothpastes.
09:41Checkup, the plaque attacker.
09:44NASA today said one of the Challenger's two main rocket boosters may have been located.
09:47NBC News correspondent Robert Bazell says it's now thought a leak from the right booster
09:51may have set off the shuttle's explosive destruct package.
09:55Israel intercepted a Libyan executive jet, but the terrorists it thought were aboard were
09:59not, and the plane was released after several hours.
10:02A bomb in a Paris bookstore injured four people.
10:04This followed an earlier Paris blast yesterday, and the discovery of a bomb at the Eiffel Tower.
10:09Police don't know if the incidents are related.
10:12Eight people were killed in Crystal Springs, Mississippi, when an explosion caused a fire in a furniture
10:16and appliance store.
10:17And Charles Manson, serving a life sentence in the Sharon Tate mass murders, told a California
10:22parole board he might want to go to Libya or Iran.
10:25He was turned down for parole.
10:27I'm Chuck Scarborough in New York.
10:28More news later on this NBC station.
10:30There's a freshness you find in the good times, a feeling you get from your long-time friends.
10:40No matter what you do to the outside of your chicken, whether it's fried, barbecued, or snuggled
10:44up next to a dumpling, it tastes better, fresher.
10:47And nobody makes it fresher than Miss Goldie.
10:49Miss Goldie, nobody makes it fresher.
10:53And nobody makes it fresher for you.
10:56Miss Goldie Chicken, nobody makes it fresher.
11:03Hey, excuse me, ma'am, but are you really eating right?
11:06Oh, I know, the salad bars and the sprouts, the juice bars, the granola bars.
11:10But I mean, are you really getting all the vitamins, minerals, and protein you need?
11:14Well, and calcium.
11:15Well, you know, there's a lot of concern about calcium deficiency these days.
11:18And osteoporosis, especially in women, you're a mature woman.
11:23The most enjoyable source for your daily calcium is a couple of glasses of...
11:28How's your backhand?

12:12I own an insurance agency, center of town.
12:15Going over to the office.
12:16I got wiped out as bad as anybody.
12:18But I knew people would be coming to me to help them put their lives back together.
12:23And they didn't need...
12:24George.
12:24...a helpless insurance agent.
12:26I called Aetna.
12:28You've got four computer terminals coming down air for eight tomorrow.
12:31We'll restore your records as soon as you're back online.

12:46Well, I learned two things this week, George.
12:48Twister is even worse than everybody said.
12:52Then you're even better.
12:53I appreciate it.
12:55Vicks NyQuil, the nighttime sniffling, sneezing, coughing, aching, stuffy head fever so you can rest medicine.
13:13From Vicks, of course.
