Here's an image that takes me right back to being five. That would have been the mid-fifties, Ike was in the White House and the Cold War was heating up. Black-and-white television was the newest toy in the American toybox and Mickey Mouse was king of the heap.

Excerpt from the very funny and very under-rated Madonna movie, "Who's That Girl?" found at this site:
[Loudon] Fire hydrant, fire hydrant, fire hydrant, excuse me, fire hydrant.
[Nikki] Listen, why can't we go to the bank first?
[Loudon] No! We did one of your things already. We murdered the pimp and the fat man. Now it's time to do one of my things.
[Nikki] Is that what you're upset about? Should I tell you something, Trott? We did the world a favor. I mean those guys were scum. Hey, they weren't even scum. They aspired one day to be scum.
[Loudon] Nonetheless, nonetheless, nonetheless, double homicide was not on my agenda.
[Nikki] Look, I got a good idea. Why don't you just tell me the box number, and I'll go to the bank, and I'll meet you back here? It'll save time.
[Loudon] Listen to me, you little insane person! I'm not letting you out of my sight. I gave my word I would see you on that bus, and until that glorious moment comes, you and I are stuck together like glue, like Mutt and Jeff, Amos and Andy, Frick and Frack, Spic and Span, Yin and Yang, Arm and Hammer, Pork and Beans.
