I clicked on this thinking it might have to do with the 1937 [movie hit](http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0028597/), but I realized it makes very little sense to start a thread only **Eve** and one or two others would post to. Chick has mass appeal by comparison.

Chick’s still referencing Rivera? That’s a hoot all by itself.
