Zacini. Could never remember how to speel the name. I froliced in the ocean with Eddie so don't think this is him.
Dutchess, just what did you do in the ocean with him????
Dutchess: No it's not Zacchini, and I have to look it up every time I spell it. As far as frolicing in the ocean with Eddie,,,,,I wouldn't touch that remark for anything!!!!
Gary, We swam, we splashed water, we tried to catch fish. We enjoyed the ocean. Eddie was one of the nicest performer I met my first year in training. GEEISH Haven't you ever Froliced?
Naked every time!
Gary, THAT is not FROLICING!!! He wore a SPEEDO suit "NO socks needed. I wore an eitty bitty hawiani print bikini. JC was not thrilled. You know we are going to be deleted off Bills blog if we don;t straighten up and fly right. My new medication makes me bold.
I thought it was "Knott's Landing", no, that was too tame, " Desperate Housewives", maybe, but the Dutchess is not married, how about "Sex In Blog City"!!!! I don't want to lose my OFG 70 rating, OFG 70, that's Old Fogies Guidance, Not suitable for Old Fogies over 70!
There was absolutely NO SEX whats soever!!!! Now if I knew then what I know now!!! HUMMMM Who is 70? The most excitment I have EVER had has been on these blogs. Very sheltered life. Maybe I ought to plug in a TV and find out what I am missing. Living alone for 15 years has never seemed tame before the blog.
Enough foolishness! Who is this nice looking couple?
Since no one has made any guesses, and this photo will soon get kicked into the archives, I guess I'll have to give Dutchess the answer. This is Annie & Willie Robbins, real name is Edleson. At the time of this photo they were members of, The Flying Hartzels. They are the parents of Tommy Edleson, another great flyer.
Worked with Tom at CW. Nice guy and good flyer. Didn't know his parents were flyers. So, The Flying Robbins have been around for awhile.
Willie still cuts a mean rug on the dance floor at Showfolks too.
