Whoa! Great memory! I would have struck out on that one!

A little more on topic, during my childhood, I thought that Fibber McGee
and Molly lived at

79 West Vovista

and not at

79 Wistful Vista,

since I knew neither the word, "wistful," nor the word, "vista."

Of course. everyone knows who lived with their two sons, David and Ricky, at

1843 Rogers Road.
