I agree, it also looks “Cordish”. In any case, a beautiful and unique car.

they were pop singers. Don’t know why there wasn’t a rock version of the show?

>>Hit Parade!!!!!

To this day I remember a singer wearing a black mantilla singing Vaya Con Dios. I was mesmerized. I saw Judy Collins perform in a tiny little coffee shop in Chicago. And Bob Dylan in Orchestra Hall. The author was crazy. He raised a finger and silence fell.

audience was crazy.

I’m sure the author was, as well. Actually, did see Timothy Leary give a lecture at U of Chicago. I was probably the only straight one in the audience. (got it right that time!)

I had the tent and the rifle! Tried sleeping in the backyard. Made it almost 5 minutes before running inside. Still scared of the dark! GREAT SONG! As well as Sink the Bismark!

Husband was actually on 64K question, as a teen.

My next door neighbor had the cap. Now I’m horrified when I see the striped tails two feet below my window. I still have the 45 of Sink the Bismark, might have the Davy Crockett. Know I have the 78 of Sgt Preston.

She was the stepmother of actress Tisha Sterling, who was married to the great grandson of Lyman Frank Baum.



no, that is not her husband. It is the son of Kirk Douglas.

of course. I guess she was really something the way all those guys wanted her.

When we were ion Puerto Vallarta we took a tour. in one neighborhood there was a pedestrian bridge from the second floor one one house to the one across the street. Right in the middle of the block.

When Burton signed to do night of the Iguana with Sue Lyon and Ava Gardner, Liz Taylor bought the house across the street from the one where Burton was staying to protect her interest. She had the pedestrian bridge built.

“Topper” was probably TV’s first fantasy show, paving the way for programs like “Bewitched”, “I Dream of Jeannie”, “My Favorite Martian”, etc. The premise of these shows were basically the same: The lead character is the only person who knows their co-star’s “secret”, but can’t tell anybody. They are surrounded by suspicious friends/neighbors/coworkers who know that something unusual is going on, but can’t quite figure it out.

She WAS hot. We just watched Mr. Roberts again last night. Her nurse character was quite a man-killer.
