Very belated reply to your ping, FRiend... :-)
I definitely remember that wonderful Lincoln Day Dinner in NYC, and I again thank you very much for inviting zelig and me to that event! I remember we managed to shake Sen. McCain's and Mayor Giuliani's hands when they entered the room. Zelig claims he shook Donald Trump's hand, I don't remember that.
I remember that Rep. Rick Lazio was there along with Trump, Giuliani, McCain and Cindy "Only in New York, kids" Adams, among many other dignitaries.
Zelig and I have been racking our brains re: McCain singing "Bomb Bomb Bomb, Bomb Bomb Iran" at the dinner... we can't remember it. Did he sing it there, or somewhere else? I may be mixing it up with Rush Limbaugh's and Paul Shanklin's parodies of McCain over the years... was that where I heard the song? I can't remember.
GRR... memory fails me! I'm sorry...
It was at the dinner. Part of his very witty speech. I always thought he was the funniest one.
Cindy used to come to all our events, along with Lionel Hampton and Tony Randall. I don’t remember Trump being there but I’m sure zelig is correct.
I might have the year wrong. I think it might have been earlier.
