Residents of the US will remember this ad, which made its debut in the late 1980s:
As frequently happens, this ad became a national joke. I can recall a number of parties where large groups of people started jumping up and down chanting "I've fallen and I can't get up" over and over again.
Anyway. It seems that the actress who portrayed the unfortunate Mrs. Fletcher was named Edith Fore. And someone has come into possession of one of her grade school attendance certificates and is selling it on eBay. On the off chance that someone somewhere is a big "I've fallen and I can't get up" aficionado.
Bidding starts at $9 and closes on the 21st.
