Talk about a tight squeeze! Here’s a picture of the USS Yorktown squeezing her way through the Panama Canal in July 1943. The fit was so tight that sailors could shake hands with those on shore.

"We're Only In It For The Money" is not only hilarious, it was one of the first multi-track albums recorded. A lot of the vocals are purposely sped up too. There is an insane track called "The Chrome Plated Megaphone Of Destiny" and quite a bit of distorted absurd laughter. I think I recall that Eric Clapton showed up to the studio and was asked to add some laughter to the track 🤣

These miners at the Cottonwood Placer mine in Montrose County, Colorado transformed a cave into a bunkhouse (1897 photo). Clearly the men have a sense of humor, naming their home the “Ocean Grove”, with signs that read “Ladies without bloomers are not allowed on the beach”, “Tourists without baggage must pay in advance”, and “O.G. dining rooms 16 to one”.

This gentleman seems quite impressed by the young lady’s 1933 Studebaker President Speedway St. Regis Brougham! Only 733 Speedway Presidents were built in 1933.

A COOL WIZARD OF OZ STORY!
During the filming of the beloved classic "Wizard of Oz" in late 1938, the MGM production staff was looking for a coat for actor Frank Morgan to wear in his role as charlatan Professor Marvel. Mr. Morgan also played the Wizard and various small roles in the film. The film's publicist explained the kind of coat they were looking for: "They wanted grandeur gone to seed. A nice-looking coat but very tattered."
According to the publicist: ". . . the wardrobe department went down to an old second-hand store on Main Street and bought a whole rack of coats. And Frank Morgan and the wardrobe man and Victor Fleming [the director] got together and chose one. It was kind of a Prince Albert coat. It was black broadcloth and it had a velvet collar, but the nap was all worn off the velvet."
The coat fit Morgan perfectly. It had exactly the right look of shabby gentility, so they used it in the film.
One hot afternoon during filming, Frank Morgan happened to turn out the pocket. Inside was a name that caused Morgan to do a double take -- the name was "L. Frank Baum." Mr. Baum, of course, was the creator of "The Wizard of Oz." Back in 1900, he wrote the book that the film was based on, "The Wonderful Wizard of Oz."
The folks at MGM knew this was an astounding find. They figured out the identity of the tailor in Chicago and sent him pictures of the coat. The tailor sent back a notarized letter saying that the coat had been made for Mr. Baum. And then Mr. Baum's widow identified the coat, too.
MGM was convinced, but others thought the story was a publicity stunt. It sounds almost too good to be true--but what a great story.
