He was infected with malaria during the battle of Guadalcanal, and was not expected to live, but he told the nursing staff, “Missed me by that much!”

Get Smart was a favorite. Great chemistry with Agent 99 aka Barbara Feldon.

My dad was a marine who fought in Guadalcanal and Bougainville. Then got filariasis from some mosquito or bug and was shipped stateside where he recuperated enough by Wars end to be ready to hit the land battle of japan that ever happened because Truman dropped the bomb

Tennessee Tuxedo - oh for the days when cartoons were fun and Inspector Gadget, too, which my kids enjoyed. Weekly my parents enjoyed Get Smart, I got to enjoy it in reruns.

SNL scketch - Carl Rowan reporter of WaPo shooting a kid in his yard after denouncing guns.
George Bush: Sam, let me just answer that question this way: I’m in perfect health. I jog everyday. Pulse rate is 43 beats per minute. Ticker’s fine. I pledge that I will spend more money than any president ever has on Secret Service protection. I will go down in history as the president in the bulletproof bubble. Guys? [ a glass cylinder is lowered around Bush ] Carl Rowan, would you do the honors? [ Carl Rowan holds gun before Bush’s glass bubble ] Go ahead, aim at my heart, Carl.. [ Carl fires bullets at Bush, but the only ricochet - eventually the glass bubble is lifted back up ] You see? There’s nothing to worry about. Thank you, Carl.
