My oldest Neice,who is about 14 now,came to me with a sad face one day.
She was around 5 or 6,and with a serious voice she says:
"Lassie is a puppet" "It's true.I saw the strings".      

Hard to argue with that.



Of course,this is the same Neice I told :
"Paint brushes are made from the tails of slow Squirrells."

Great memories. I still listen to 8 tracks in my shop and in the Galaxie. It's about time to break out the box of Christmas 8 tracks.

And sitting right behind me is a dime operated Cavalier 72 Coke machine....but I can only find beer bottles to fit it anymore....darn!

Great memories....good times.....can't get much better than that.

Yeah Mike, that is a shame, being a widower and all  that. Makes you feel real sorry for a former child star.

I had forgotten that it was he that played that role.

BUT. can somebody help with the pony's name.
