Hi Joe:)
Tony Bennett might be on
one of those Burg radios or
TVs back in the day..
and rightly so as he was
and amazingly still is brilliant:)
Hi Joe: Thought I saw a picture of George Carlin somewhere on your blog.I saw him in the 60s at the Jolly Roger Hotel in Ft.Lauderdale.I also was around here when they filmed "Where The Boys Are" with Connie Francis and George Hamilton. That's when the kids flooded Lauderdale during spring break. I have great memories of Fla. in those days. Have a nice day, Ralph
Thank you Ralph and thanks for all the memories you post, especially the ones about Wetzel Field. When my 2 boys were young, we would go there in the evenings and play baseball or just have a catch. We lived on the corner of Morris and Revere Ave. Loved the neighborhood.
