I found this video and thought it was interesting. The first few minutes are good. He was a guest on $64,000 Question TV show in 1958. He died November 20th 1959 the same day I was born. Big deal, I know. HAHAHAHA. Well, it is to me anyway. Hope you enjoy it.

Adultery is still a federal offense in some states and you can do time for it.

Same age as my grandfather who was also born in 1879.
My biggest concern is that when I pass away, my wife will sell my guns for what I told her I paid for them.
