The only down thing about it was when my folks watched the Lawrence Welk Show. good to know I wasn't the only one to suffer thru Larry W -- my dad was a huge fan ( and also of Mario Lanza ) -- And with all of 4 stations on the air at that time here ( Chicago ) CBS / NBC / ABC & WGN and only 1 TV in the house - we were indeed stuck. fwiw - yes - Faye was stunning in B&C Lada Edmund Jr -- the name rang a bell but I have to admit I had to google to bring back an image. With Glenn Miller / Lawrence Welk etc ruling the music in our house - it was hard to get 'alternatives' heard...and AM radio was little help either.

Happy's other name is "the queen of clean" but that has it's advantages, during the holidays I can sit at the table and talk, while she puts everything away and cleans up, works for me.
