A hit before JFK was assassinated. Here are the lyrics:
My daddy is president,
What does your daddy do?
I live in a big white house
On Pennsylvania Avenue.
I always hide behind
The desk in daddy's den
When I play hide-and-seek
With secret service men.
My daddy is president,
We had a busy day.
I'm learning the alphabet:
A-B-C-D-J-F-K.
[ Lyrics from: http://www.lyricsfreak.com/l/little+jo+ann/my+daddy+is+president_20845419.html ]
I don't play house,
I play the game of government.
'Cause my daddy is the president.
At daddy's first press conference,
I made news,
Wearing mommy's high heeled shoes.
And every time I'm able
I'm under the conference table.
My daddy is president,
We make a happy pair.
I go for my pony ride,
He rides in his rocking chair.
No matter what I do
It makes a news event
'Cause my daddy is the president.

Proctor & Gamble's former logo originated in 1851 as a crude cross that barge workers on the Ohio River painted on cases of P&G star candles to identify them. P&G later altered this symbol into a trademark (shown below) featuring a man in the moon overlooking 13 stars. It was said to commemorate the original 13 American colonies.
Nobody seemed bothered by it for more than a century. In the mid-1980s, though, the company received unwanted media publicity when wild rumors spread that the moon-and-stars logo was a satanic symbol. The odd accusation was based on a particular passage in the Bible, specifically Revelation 12:1, which states: "And there appeared a great wonder in heaven; a woman clothed with the sun, and the moon under her feet, and upon her head a crown of 12 stars." P&G's logo consisted of a man's face on the moon surrounded by 13 stars, and some claimed that the logo was a mockery of the heavenly symbol alluded to in the aforementioned verse, thus construing the logo to be satanic. Where the flowing beard meets the surrounding circle, three curls were said to be a mirror image of the number 666, or the reflected number of the beast. At the top and bottom, the hair curls in on itself, and was said to be the two horns like those of a ram that represented the false prophet.
These interpretations were strongly denied by company officials, and no evidence linking P&G to the Church of Satan or any other occult organization has ever been presented. The company unsuccessfully sued Amway from 1995 to 2003 over rumors forwarded through a company voicemail system in 1995. In 2007 P&G successfully sued individual Amway distributors for reviving and propagating the false rumors.
Tired of the controversy, the moon-and-stars logo was discontinued by P&G in 1985.

Recall a younger time in our lives, for instance, our childhood years? Well then, that is when in the fall of that year, after wrapping up a short time circulating itself up on the favored list we loved, it became something very meaningful that started with an idea. It was another integral part of our life of memories, but were you really affected by it? You really can't say, I've never heard of it. Internationally and nationally, it was acknowledged both figuratively and literally as it drove through our lives with support towards our daily grind. You may even have loved sugar then, but now, your walk these days may now continue with a skip on the treadmill with that "sugar" thought. It may look pretty deliberate that I am making a connection with fitness and walking off sugar. It's okay, just don't take it seriously. Those years were so innocent then; making our memories last is all it is in a big way. I've established that with you already.

After hosting the hugely successful You Bet Your Life on TV from 1950 to 1961, 70-year-old Groucho Marx was persuaded to return to the tube with Tell It To Groucho--a short-lived game show that aired for just five months on CBS in 1962 before being axed. The show was similar to YBYL, where the ad-libbed comedic banter between Groucho and the contestants was far more important than the game. This time the game portion was almost an afterthought. To win $500, contestants had to identify celebrities whose pictures were only shown for a split second. The show had a rotten time slot. It was directly pitted against Dr. Kildare on NBC and My Three Sons on ABC. Early in the show's run, Groucho wrote to a friend and described his on-air assistant, Patty Harmon, as "a sprightly young doll with oversized knockers who leaps around the stage with all the abandon of a young doe being pursued by an elderly banker". (Harmon was a onetime runner-up in the Miss Connecticut pageant and had been a contestant on YBYL. She later got some acting gigs as Joy Harmon. Her most famous role was in Cool Hand Luke; she's the busty blonde who provocatively washes her car within eyeshot of the aroused chain-gang prisoners.) Groucho never had another regular TV show after the last episode of Tell It To Groucho aired on May 31, 1962.

For a dollar and a soap wrapper, famed Hollywood makeup artist Wally Westmore will give you your own personal beauty analysis in this November 1964 Seventeen magazine Dial soap ad featuring popular model Colleen Corby. As mentioned in the trivia game number 65 here at YRT, Westmore did the makeup for the 1932 horror film Island of Lost Souls. 32-years later this respected beauty authority graced the pages of teen fashion tome Seventeen magazine. The juxtaposition here is humorous.

United Kingdom's true gentleman was born way back in 1940. That would make him 71 today!
He still can be found being where he loves.
Any guesses?
Some of you may know, he had strong acceptance in '76 for a number that brought new attention.
But it was after 12 years time, he refocused on newer stuff that would give him more last'n appeal. Well, that did hit the right idea then with his very own son. You see, for a time, the man was facing, or even just dealing with the prospect of being forgotten. His son put him in-the-right with a solid partnership, adding the best approach in making TJ more sought after. It worked! Even his long-standing marriage has worked too! Ever since he tied the knot in the late 1950s. Wow, that is interesting, considering who he is. His happy '57 marriage needs an exclamation mark! But how is it possible that he avoided any difficulties?

I have come on deciding that another game is clearly in order. Who of you has the skill on drawing an answer?
Now I gotta deal with my harvest of pumpkins. Needless to say, I gotta earn a buck somehow. Either that, or I'll have a rough riding this December. Dealing with life's realities is only half the battle with a short-lived white ghost pumpkin patch. I don't know if it will be profitable? Confused? That is part of the game.
UPDATE- SOLVED!

How many of you can recall, even for a sec, the dangerous, but apparently fictitious spooky story that came out for 2 nights in a 2-week period?
Well, it almost never happened, even though names that may of been very familiar contributed. There were problems. For example, too difficult to make 100's of pages combined in little time was the issue then, but after some days, the knocking-out-of-it had proved to appear right for its chosen way to present. Most importantly, it looked to be the closest they would get with a lot of switches done without lengthy delays, especially anything that was overly raw and hard to deal with. I am sure there were plenty of qualms made throughout the task.
And so, in that November, like a a precarious virus, the creaking of the undead were brought out from their crypts in search of taking over. Depending on your age, it would send flinching shivers down your spine. Some of it could be said, it's unlike anything that had been put to the family room. All in all, worthwhile, it did capture the right feelings inside a closed cursed house.

Hey,
I thought I would honor the time with factual and verified stuff, "the unordinary stuff" you've come to expect from all things around phenomena and unknowns in what were then our modern times. Recall ole Leo? He really was the man back then for a lot of you. Recall Mr. R. Vaughn? He had stepped in the 1st time as the documentarian spokesman, but decided to not continue after that. Remember our friend Mister Serling? It's a fact, he was also involved with the docu-based nights for a short time, until his untimely passing. It was then, we may of realized the entire thing was never spoilt though with repectable Leonard for years, as there were possible explanations given with the available evidence. *E*
