I like the way Bud offers Kitty his hand to help her down the step at the end of each show. I also liked Sam Levenson's appearance here. He was appropriately low key, didn't strain to be funny, and was generally pleasant. Unlike, say, Abe Burrows, who on a recent show was none of those things...obnoxious, really.
In Round One, the real porpoise capturer said there was no difference between porpoises and dolphins. However, according to what I have been able to find out, there *are* several differences between the two.
Dolphins tend to have prominent, elongated “beaks” and cone-shaped teeth, while porpoises have smaller mouths and spade-shaped teeth. The dolphin's hooked or curved dorsal fin (the one in the middle of the animal's back) also differs from the porpoise's triangular dorsal fin.
Arthur Frommer #3 said that airfare to France cost $530 in 1963 dollars = over $4000 in 2016 dollars. I think that's remarkable that the cost of airfare to Europe can still be around $500 today - when you catch a good bargain. But the comfort and service of today's air travel is rather worse, of course.
What was the name of that book? I think I should read it! And you CAN'T get by in Paris on 5 dollars a day! 5 dollars is like 42 dollars today and there is no WAY you can get by on that!!
