Me too. I don't know if I used that phrase before George or not. I remember 
watching the McCarthy debacle on our new B&W DuMont tellly and the subsequent 
gyrations of the deeply closeted FBI head and began using the "F*ck Hoover" 
greeting in the late 1950s.

George and I may be brothers or something. My old man got around pretty good 
when he had the motorcycle.  Bv)=
