The Missus and I saw Sam at a taping of the "Later" show hosted by Cynthia Garret. Charlie's Angels had just come out the weekend before and he seemed pretty nervous. We found out after the interview that it was Sam's first TV interview. Such an interesting career so far.

re: the latter girl - maybe you won't dislike her so much if you get to know her better? I dunno.

A HS friend thought it would be great if it were legal for him to have a howitzer.

Ah yes, the bottle of Squid brand fish juice that my Vietnamese and Hong Konger room mates had.

When I read that they were soaked in lye, that was exactly where my Norwegian American mind went - Lutefisk eggs!
