On the quiz that led off this thread, I scored a 17 (took it a few years back). I missed Princess Summerfall Winterspring because I never saw the Howdy Doody Show, except once or twice by accident. I was in college when it first appeared on television (!!).

Never heard about the purple ink thing. And I only vaguely remembered the Cabdriver song and couldn't recall who had done it.

The family car was a Packard (we had five of them over time, from boxy in 1935 to pretty sleek in 1954) before they sold out to Studebaker. That was back in the days when you could tell what make a car was just by looking at it from a distance. Great cars.
