    Fun game, 70. I got 14 out of 20.

    Not bad for a GenX, I hope.

    That was a trip back. 17 out of 20. Lucky strike one was the only one that I didn't even have an educated guess on.

    I knew 19 out of twenty and guessed the 20th correctly. I really didn't know the Lone Ranger one but I guessed the silver bullet since I knew that's what he used. Of course we also said LSMFT meant loose strap means floppy titty as a take off on the Lucky Strike commercial.

    Now in Shreveport weekday TV came on at 3:00 pm and Howdy Doody was the second show. What was the first?
    What was third?






    First was Pinky Lee
    Third was Al's Corral

    Freddy the freeloader! I had Gertrude & Heathcliff stuck in my brain for that one and couldn't get past it. I got the second part though.

    Red Skelton's mobile home broke down in a small desert town next to the airbase I was stationed at many years ago. Word got around town who was there. Red entertained the whole town in that gas station for several hours while his motor home was being repaired. A true entertainer at heart. By the way, I believe that at the end of the day, he owed nothing for the repairs.
