In 1972, my parents, my sister and myself visited California for the very first time.

While walking down a street in San Francisco one night, I saw a guy standing in front of a theater shouting to people walking by, “Carol Doda is going to do her act in ten minutes! Come in and see Carol do her thing!” or words to that effect.

We did not go in (unfortunately).

Somewhat off topic..In 1963, I was going on a campus visit to Johns Hopkins, and drove down from NY with my parents for a weekend tour. Back then Balitmore was a real dump..that was before they’d renovated the harbor area, and Hopkins was in a really lousy area. So just outside the the main entrance to the campus is this big old 1920’s movie theater...which was then a burlesque theater, and the marque says “BUSTY RUSSELL AND HER NIFTY 50’S” and there’s a banner..easily 30 feet tall, hanging down with her picture on it.
