"You were flying".

 

Earnie Kovak don't like em'.

 

Hey!----There's "Father time" in person!

 

Ernie Kovak was drunk!

 

A rather snide comment from someone who can't get the name straight. His name was Ernie Kovacs. " Kovacs, who had worked for much of the evening, met Adams at a baby shower given by Billy Wilder for Milton Berle and his wife, who had recently adopted a three-year old boy. The couple left the party in separate cars" IIRC it was raining according to the newspaper account I read at the time. A real shame, he was a great talent. Guess what? Normal people drink at parties, especially in 1962. A little respect please.

1952 Pontiac Chieftain convertible

 

SWI66, any idea where the airplane filling station in post #93704 is located? I thought Knoxville, TN had the only one. Of course that's assuming its still there.

 

(ca. 1939)* - Royal Albatross, an airplane used as a service station, located on the eastern vertex of a narrow strip of land bordered by Ventura Boulevard (south), Ventura Place (north, seen here, foreground) and Laurel Canyon Boulevard (west). Gasoline pumps are set up under the wing spans.
