Dear Blowhards --

Lex turns up a clip on YouTube that'll ... Well, if you spent any time during the '60s watching television, these are names, faces, and voices that will bring it all back. Now, whether that's a good thing or a bad thing ...

And those "Jetsons"-era wheels! I remember owning a Corvair, and thinking a Chevelle was a pretty hot number.

I found myself thinking that Elizabeth Montgomery was a pretty hot number.

I like the metallic clank when the doors are closed. It sounds nothing like a modern car. That sound took me back to my Dad's 66 Oldsmobile F-85 Deluxe, which was a terrific car.

I couldn't get this one to play. Never had this problem before. The others work, but not this one. Got another link?

I played the "Dead or Alive" game...mostly dead; makes me feel old.
