Jimmy Durante was a class act, to be sure. He was big in The Fraternal Order of Eagles charity for kids.

I remember when I was a little kid, there was a tree trimming company that came around every year. One of the workers looked exactly like him. I would always go over and say hi to Mr Durante. I thought that it was really him.

Must've been a prototype TV if you were young. I figgered you watched most stuff in theaters...in black and white.

I was born in ‘52. Somewhere around the house there’s a small B&W photo of me watching TV. I couldn’t have been much more than 12 months old. The TV had like a 10” screen in a large cabinet. If I run across it I’ll post it.

 

[Jimmy N.]

In '52? You'd almost be considered a child in Florida.

Isn't the median age there about 98? (Age and temperature maybe).

I visited some friends that retired to a Del Web community in Arizona. Wife and I went out to dinner them and some of their friends. I felt like a spring chicken.
