@Susan Newman; Then you’ve just a young chick,right? b/w TV and Uncle Miltie. I still wonder where my Jet-Pack is. I read too many Mechanix Illustrated-type mags wayback then.. Kids today may sneer about my lack of a Smart-Phone, but I ask, who invented them? They have NFI. and we did it all with slide rules.
Oh, my… you ARE a young’un, aren’t you? The neighbor kids’ parents would yell out at us to “get in here, Uncle Miltie is coming on !!” Then the advice to get on home when the show was over.
