Definitely Bogie, and for some reason to me Mary resembles Arlene Francis.

Of all the gin joints in all the towns, I had to be stuck at the table next to Mary Livingstone!

OK, Bogart was clearly WAY too easy.

Next - it's abstract!

The shirt Jack bought for something like 99 cents at the May Co. when he "met" Mary?

Yep! And, it's guaranteed!

You all feel free to jump on in and post pictures too! Everyone's a lookin' ...

OK, in the meantime, some familiar faces. But what are they doing?

Groucho's ordering the sea bass?

I got one recently, so I'll abstain on this one. But since Bing's not there, what they're NOT doing is getting in trouble with the sponsors!

VACA SANTA! Is that a pic from my family's favorite Jack Benny Program? Did Danny, Frankie, Groucho and show up at a Palm Beach broadcast to "sing" Jack's song, When You Say I Beg Your Pardon? My kids and I always wished there was film of that hilarious yet undeniably tragic musical event. If this is a still of that mayhem, while it's not film, it's a treasure to us.

Woops, I missed one. I neglected to mention a presumably talented contributor to of the quartet. Sorry George!

Great Job Moose...on the nosey! Glad it's a favorite episode of yours.

After that fond memory, let's take a look at the seedier side of the Benny legacy. Here's a newspaper shot (again, sorry about the grainy quality) of someone being arrested. Who is it? The Lindsay Lohan of her day? This was a bit shocking/amusing to me when I found it. The person in question is the one in the center.

Is it a grainy undercover shot of the Grammar Police, arresting Mary ("Butcher The English Language For The Sake of a Laugh") Livinstone for her "sweeze chiss" and "grass reek" blunders?

by **shimp scrampi** » Wed Mar 18, 2009 10:20 am

Fred, you're in the right family ...

and it is indeed a real photo. Though I should correct it to say that this is not the arrest, but the day after this woman spent a night in the clink.

Didn't Joanie and Sandy Burns get in a youthful scrape with the long arm of the Palm Springs law? My GUESS is Joanie.

by **shimp scrampi** » Wed Mar 18, 2009 1:06 pm

Nope, it's not Joan Benny (or Sandy Burns).
