mine was yellow scratch and sniff

the loss of the spaghetios guy and the loss of the gloved one just a year ago may have given some of us the feeling that bit by bit, our childhood was fading away.  here’s a little more sand through the hourglass–the founder of swatch watches nicolas hayek died of heart failure at the age of 82.  hayek was known as a great manager and is credited with saving the then failing swiss watch industry back in the 80s–back then he asserted that a cheap watch could tell time as well as an expensive watch and used lower-end materials like plastic and quartz movement along with mass-production to keep prices low.

ok, but what’s this got to do with a smart car?

hayek invented  the smart car and said city cars only need “room for two big adults and a crate of beer.”

i’m going to play my pretty in pink soundtrack now.
