Two things here to share, these picked up from Annette Funicello's
autobiography that I finished today.

The Sherman Brothers wrote "You're Sixteen," a huge hit for one Johnny
Burnette (and later for Mr. Starr). That's a great song.

But more interesting, for me anyway, is that their father, Al Sherman, was
one of them Tin Pan Alley songwriters who wrote (with two other writers),
"You Gotta Be a Football Hero." That's also a great song.

Oh, yeah, right. Dirt on Annette Funicello. Sacrilege.

The woman's an angel. Like me.

Greetings:

I once saw an old movie magazine that had the headline, "Annette Has
Baby - Her Behavior in the Delivery Room!" Always wished I'd read the
story...though the headline is sensational, the text probably
describes her as being serene and beatific throughout...

Cheers!

(Who is not counting on being serene OR beatific in about 5 weeks when
my baby is due...)
