That Blue VFR card with a hole in it by
Al
Attention Old Farts...
Does anyone remember that Blue VFR card with a hole in it? I think it was a

Lorenzo Lamas by
Bob Gardner
Hate to admit that I watch Wheel of Fortune, but...
Lorenzo Lamas was a guest contestant last night and the charity to which he
contributed his winnings (ten grand) was Angel Flight. Pat Sajak asked him
