N. Nat "King" Cole - her co-star in Saint Louis Blues, and subsequent close friend. (Subject to approval by OP, ellynmacg, as to whether this is a repeat of "H") Hi, Divtal! Sorry I took so long to get back to you on this. I have no problem at all with this entry. While it repeats a co-star's name, the rest of the material mentioned here references other properties.

Will anybody here not make it to the 2050s, naturally speaking? Weeelll..I had at least one great-aunt who made it past her century mark, so that may mean a ray of hope for me...and I have never been a smoker or a drinker or a user of harder drugs*, so I might make it to that decade. But I'd only want to reach that age with my mind intact (more or less). *Sounds pretty dull, doesn't it? You might be surprised...

Penn Guinn Here's my favorite vintage Wendy's ad. I sometimes say, "Is next..." Me too. "Eez next!" And the funny thing is, I never even saw that ad until just now--I only heard the phrase (in that fake Russian accent) and loved it. Thanks for finally showing the ad--eez wery fonny! That salmon commercial reminds me of this:
