This ad, Todd, is from back in the days when one took pride in his work.

My father took a correspondence course in electronics when he could no longer drive truck due to his heart condition. He built a successful TV repair business which he ran till the day he died. No real point except this post made me think of it. Also I am proud of my dad for that, he was a hell of a guy.
