Excellent call, **don’t mind me**. Notice carefully in that cast how many went on to be relatively big-name stars. Joe Don Baker Dennis Hopper ---

(Well, I guess we have to disqualify that blue-eyed guy playing the title role.) \*\* Yeah, as an adolescent, I really dug Joy Harmon’s “bits” as she was washing the car. (Did I say “adolescent?” Did I say “dug?”) ---

Anybody remember his last name? I think he passed away fairly recently. \*\* I don’t think he’s been in a lot of TV shows, but could you possibly be thinking of Liam Dunn? He was the reverend in “Blazing Saddles” among other things. ---
