    ................ SECRET AGENT MAN.....................


    Man was that theme song a hit................

    There's a man who leads a life of danger
    To everyone he meets he stays a stranger
    With every move he makes another chance he takes
    Odds are he won't live to see tomorrow.

    Secret agent man, secret agent man

    Beware of pretty faces that you find
    A pretty face can hide an evil mind
    Ah, be careful what you say
    Or you'll give yourself away
    Odds are you won't live to see tomorrow.

    I used to get up every morning at 5:30

    just to watch "The Lone Ranger" and go back to sleep on the couch.

    I remember the friday night fights but it seemed to me that the sponsor was more something like barbersol or aquavelva or a major razor blade companys like Gillette. I dont remeber the beer adds. Thinking of it tho I did love the Hamms beer comercials with the Hamms bear. Hated that beer tho.

    Bigbird Do I remember Olympic TV's? I had one in about 1960-61 remote control broke and I had to wedge a pencil somewhere to make it work. Bought it a Western Appliance for about $10 a month.. I remember watching the Flying Tigers on sat morning at a neighbors house. One of the advertisers was Power House candy bar. I think Wild Bill Hickok came on next. Holy crap did I actually remember this stuff, who needs a computer

    I remember when in 1959 my two sisters bought a number of broken black and white TV sets and kept switching vacuum tubes between them until they got one to work. That was our first family TV set.

    Then in 1963 I watched the coverage of the shooting and funeral of JFK on that very set.

    Now that brings back a memory I haven't thought of in many years. In the late 50s to early 60s the corner grocery store had a tube tester and sold replacement tubes for your TV and radio sets.

    My first portable radio had three vacuum tubes, had a bakelite case and cost twelve dollars.

    At least your sisters got the thing to work.

    ABC's " Wide World Of Sports" There's not enough barrell jumping on ice skates, motorcycle racing on ice, cliff diving from Mexico and of course ski jumping ( I still have to turn away when I see replays of the "agony of defeat" )
    On TV anymore. NBC's baseball "Game of the Week" baseball
    was more fun when you looked forward to it instead of having it forced down you. "Tomorrow with Tom Snyder" that laugh and the way he used to harrass the guests was great.
