And before everyone asks…he used to be on radio. You know that box that grandma had. The one with no pictures, only talking. And sometimes weird music with lyrics you could understand?

Maybe next he can call Don, Don Wilson, and send a Candygram

Oh, I don’t know, it could Mr. Crick, or perhaps Sherlock… ☺

Good reference today.

One of the Duke brothers in Trading Places with Eddie Murphy and Dan Akroyd. He was a staple of game shows like To Tell the Truth back in the late 50s and early 60s.

For those who are stumped by this, Don Ameche was an actor who had the starring role in ‘The Story of Alexander Graham Bell’.

I think he wanted pizza.

He was a blast from the past….

It could have been Basil Rathbone, or more recently, Benedict Cumberbatch

He basically invented an intercom. It would think it became a telephone when it was setup to call outside your location. Just saying.
