Did he really say that?

The kind of humor I like is the thing that makes me laugh for five seconds and think for ten minutes = GEORGE CARLIN...Stained glass, engraved glass, frosted glass–give me plain glass = JOHN FOWLES...Music is the mathematics of the gods = PYTHAGORAS...Nothing is more fluid than language = R.L.SWIHART

Jack, Jackie, & Caroline


Jackie, JFK and Caroline relax, Hyannis Port, 1959.

The JFK stands for John Fitzgerald Kennedy but he preferred "Jack" or Mr. President

Blogger's Note
In the pre-blog world of fifty years ago, I would have entitled this photograph "Camelot, CamoLetta, & Caroline" and ignored Mark Shaw's copyright symbol.
Fifty days ago, I would have written "Jack & Jackie were an update of Scott & Zelda..." But greater minds than mine have effectively said the same thing.
I wish I had said "pulchritudinous and punctual" before Peter Lawford did (in the video link). However, his other adjective to describe Marilyn Monroe is downright scary.
The date was May 19, 1962.
