Yesterday, the Radio Classics channel on Sirius XM, which basically plays old radio programs from the so-called golden age of radio, played a number of programs featuring Cary Grant in honor of that birthday noted on that blurb.

On a related/not-related point, while I have a number of things to memorialize old Baja moments (pictures and recordings), I have virtually nothing to nail down any dates. For example, I'm pretty sure Household Fly was written and recorded during the summer of '68, but even that is just a decent guess. A lot of stuff was recorded between then and, say, the Fall of 1971,but aside from saying "circa" some year in that range, it's all a vague blur.

Re: memorializing dates--yeah, if only we had thought of notating that stuff back in ye olden days, eh? That's a great thing about digital photos nowadays, the date and time, the place and even more are right there in the EXIF data.

As far as the Chase Event Books go, I thought the internet would've made them obsolete but they're still in print. I guess there's still a market to have a all-in-one volume right at your fingertips, even at the price they're asking ($75 for a new paperback/$82 for the Kindle edition)
