And can I say, this 45s set is weirdly appropriate for this weekend. Not only have I been on a 60s/70s' theme tune trip, but on Saturday, I also watched a music quiz, where one of the questions was about "Car Wash".

Hi Kitty! You're almost as long a listener as I -- since April '09 for me!

Actually, speaking of "Argo", the end of '79 is the beginning of the Iran Hostage Crisis--Daniel came on board right on time for that.

"Happy Days": 7 spinoffs (or by some calculations, 9), and was itself a spinoff
MTM is way behind with 3 spinoffs and a tv movie.
