Yellow weekend: Let your fingers do the walking



1970 Yellow Pages ad: "Let your fingers do the walking!"

I couldn't post that ad without this one, however:



[The hands are those of Chevy Chase from the 1974 movie The Groove Tube.]

Lastly, my real reason for posting all of this is so I could post this clip from Mary Hartman, Mary Hartman in which Mary and her sister Cathy discuss


[We have no "hands," "fingers," "Yellow Pages," "waxy yellow buildup," or even "wax" tags? What is this world coming to?]

sometimes i an discouraged from going 'tag crazy' :-) we have floating heads though! and tasteful side boob! and bulge, camel toe....and um....butt pirates!! hands and fingers are good...i think yellow pages are too narrow---try to stay wide with tags and not very very specific or we'd have like 2000+ tags-----i WILL give waxy yellow buildup though cuz that's just funny sounding! :)

I never watched "MHMH", but I used to see Debralee Scott on "The Match Game" and other game shows. Her bio says that she moved to Florida to take care of an ailing sister, and she died while she was there.
