for instance. Some of the simplest things said make you wonder.

TV adverts are the best, consider you are sitting down watching an advert
which is trying to sell you the newest TV, Something like this.

Would you not want one.
(Pause for thought)
My TV has to be as good or better as I can hear the sound, see the picture and color already
