    Joe,

    When De Soto was sponsoring You Bet Your Life, he was in some
    commercials. I recall his being in the latest model De Soto and waving at JM>camera as he drove off.

    LOL!! Sounds like Groucho.

    Then at the end of the show was a large De Soto logo with him opening an
    O telling people to be sure to tell the dealer Grouch sent them, with a JM>wiggle of his cigar and eye brows.

    I wonder if those are on YouTube??

    Trivial side.
    When The Marx Brothers were the toast of Broadway in the '20s, Groucho
    bought a house on Long Island and needed a car. His first car? A 1928 De JM>Soto.

    Interesting.

    And now you know a part of the rest of the story!
    Good day!
    Joe (in my best Paul Harrr-vee impersonation)

    Not bad. :)

    I'm reminded of one of the "stupid stories" that was on one of Paul
    Harvey's newscasts once. This ol' boy had taken a selfie of himself in
    front of his crop of marijuana plants, inside a greenhouse...and made it
    the cover photo on the phone.

    Unfortunately, for him...he lost the phone.

    Who should find it?? The police!! <BG>

    Daryl
