Hi Jim. The link to the Kurt Munger piece appears to be missing (or at least it is when I view your post via the WordPress app on iPad).
Fixed! Thank you.
Lovely, thanks. I do enjoy looking at old Kodachromes, so would have been sad to have missed it. :)
I had missed hearing of Arte Johnson’s death. I remember Laugh-In being must-watch TV in its first couple of years. Somewhere in my basement is a Laugh-In LP record from maybe 1969.
We always watched the show too. Enjoyable stuff.
