Wow, does that ever date me -- but the secret's out now. I was on the original "Beverly Hillbillies" set, lunching with Buddy Ebsen at the Brown Derby and dinner with Irene Ryan at Chasen's. Donna Douglas was really...pneumatic (gasp!)... in those days. Lots and lots of memories: lunch with Borgnine and the McHale's Navy crew at the studio commissary; a private lunch with the gorgeous and amazingly gracious Loretta Young in her bungalow on the lot (does anyone even *remember* Loretta Young these days?) There was much, much more.
You're right -- I probably should be putting it all down on paper, at least as much as I can recall. My family and grandchildren might get a kick out of those memories and events.
You should. As should George Putnam.

UGLY! UGLY! She was so ugly she was banished to a colony of other ugly people!
Remember that TWILIGHT ZONE episode?
