Ford freshens Taurus ad image

FORD MARKETERS are trying to alter prevailing impressions of the Taurus as cheap, no-frills transportation. They want people to take another look at the vehicle based on its quieter ride and simple luxury improvements like wood paneling and softer seat leather. Ford will tout the vehicle in television commercials on widely viewed programs such as NBCs Friends and CBSs Everybody Loves Raymond, and in magazines such as Time and Newsweek.

The ad work, by WPP Group PLCs J. Walter Thompson, is Fords first national campaign for the car in two years. Ford had been spreading out the majority of the Taurus ad dollars among regional dealer groups.

Research suggests the generation of self-taught workers now retiring is the last generation for whom autodidactic learning carried genuine economic power — they could enter industries without credentials, rise without degrees, and build without permission, and the closure of those pathways through credentialism means the kind of mind that built most of the infrastructure we depend on is being systematically excluded from building what comes next

I’m 73 and the most disorienting moment of my life wasn’t widowhood or retirement, it was standing in a restaurant being asked what I’d like to order and realizing I’d spent so many decades eating what was easiest, cheapest, or what everyone else wanted that I genuinely didn’t know what I liked anymore, and that small moment at a menu contained the entire story of how I lost myself

I’m 73 and widowed and the hardest part isn’t the silence at night. It’s Sunday mornings, when the whole world seems organized around pairs and families and I’m standing in a coffee shop trying to look like someone who chose to be alone rather than someone whose person simply isn’t coming back.

Psychology says parents who unconsciously compete with their adult child’s partner for closeness don’t realize they’re running a test the child can’t pass — because choosing the partner looks like betrayal and choosing the parent feels like regression, and the child eventually solves it by choosing distance, which is the one outcome nobody wanted but everyone’s behavior made inevitable

Research suggests people who put items back exactly where they found them in stores — even when they decide not to buy them — aren’t just being considerate, they’re revealing a worldview where other people’s labor is visible and valuable, not invisible
