When I was a young ‘un, I had the pleasure of watching the Mills Brothers cohost the old Mike Douglas Show. They were truly something special.

When Frankie Laine, who wore glasses with heavy black frames, was the cohost, he wore a different pair of glasses each day; one pair featured little windshield wipers (he replaced them quickly after demonstrating the wipers).

I discovered that, for all practical purposes, “bolero” is another word for rumba.
