Harry Truman drove until the middle 1960's. There’s a book about his and Bess’s first car trip from Independence to New York and back after he left the presidency. Both Eisenhower and Lyndon Johnson drove, and it was a toss up to who’s driving skills were worse.

I do remember reading when Nixon travelled abroad, all his successors asked him to accept Secret Service protection, as a safety measure.

This will air long before NBC's mini series of Carson, which was to be based on Bill Zehmes' long awaited biography of Carson.

A singing and dancing Colonel Sanders. Morse has to be next.

I have a sneaking feeling Tim will be wearing a white suit and goatee sooner rather than later. He was already referenced in the ad where Jim Gaffigan's "Colonel" was mad at KFC's ad agency, and Tim's photo was on the "Wall Of Possible Colonels", along with Artie Lange, Gary Busey, and a chicken, among others.

The funniest part was that the bandits got all their information from the Palm Beach newspapers, about who was throwing a formal dinner party for who. They would arrive wearing tuxedos, and get to the upstairs of the house, and rob the place. One of the guys would fry up a pound of hamburger, and would sit on the

My brother was a career Navy man, and he threatened to murder the next Navy wife turned Amway salesperson who turned up on his doorstep, trying to sell him detergent that he pointed out to them, was always, always cheaper at the Base Exchange before sending them on their way.

One of my favorite robbery stories was about "The Dinner Time Bandits." who were two guys from West Palm Beach,FL that specialized in robbing the homes of the rich in Palm Beach. They robbed high society blind for years, and were never caught, until circumstances pulled them back into crime. One heist that stood out

I saw a documentary about high end robberies, and it was mentioned that "The Pink Panthers" have stolen hundreds of millions of dollars in jewelry over the past couple of decades. They've done everything from high end home and hotel invasions, safecracking, and smash and grabs from Europe's finest jewelry stores.

I especially enjoyed the '70's version when one of the panelists would be a comedian, such as David Letterman or Steve Martin. Every back then, Letterman's "Cranky Dave" persona would come to the surface, when dealing with a contestant, much to my delight.

Alright! Alright! Alright!

While I know nothing about Chance The Rappers work, I heartily approve his playing this gig, if only that it will cause one of the Fox News talking heads to have a stroke. Please let it be Hannity, please let it be Hannity.

Please let Jere Burns play his agent.

That was when Reagan was Governor of California. He also had Robert Kennedy and Richard Nixon on his show. And there was no Fallon type screwing around.

I remember watching Carson as a kid, going hammer and tong on Richard Nixon and his administration until just before the resignation, and he dialed it back. I read later that it was intentional on his part, as he didn't want to appear as kicking Nixon while he was down.

On the set of The Tonight Show in the great beyond, Steve Allen, Ernie Kovacs, Jack Paar and Johnny Carson are collectively giving both Trump and Fallon the business.

Polar finally made it here to the hinterlands of Eastern Ohio/Northern West Virginia. I used to pick it up whenever I was in the Cleveland area. Sadly, the entire line isn't carried in my area, as I've wanted to try the "Dry" line of their drinks.

I think a 4th debate should be scheduled, with it consisting of live physicals of both candidates. Blood pressure, BMI readings, stress tests, the works. The finale would be a colonoscopy, just to hear Tom Brokaw say as Trump began his, "And now, here's the asshole's asshole!"

I read where Martin Scorsese showed up at Woodstock, in a blazer, dress slacks, and wearing loafers. He had been hired as a cameraman, and had it drummed into his head at the NYU film school that you dressed up for a job, no matter what. IIRC, he ditched the blazer about an hour into the shoot.

I remember reading that Welles was so booked doing different radio shows in New York, that he hired an ambulance to take him from studio to studio, because while a cab or limousine could be pulled over for speeding, and would get stuck in traffic, ambulances got through traffic quite quickly, with no fear of getting a
