November 1963 is when we returned from Honduras. I was 3 years and 3 months old and that is when my memories begin. My parents always liked watching variety shows so I'm sure they watched The Danny Kaye show. The US pulled personnel from Honduras because there was a coup. Our neighbors were all Honduran so at three I was bilingual. The Honduran people would bravely spit at the soldiers who were everywhere after the coup. To my mother's chagrin I copied our neighbors. She said it was a little worrisome to walk around with me spitting at the soldiers but the soldiers would just laugh. I was too adorable to get mad at, I guess. I always love some Gwen Verdon so thank you Martini.
In November of 1963 I was a month old. Nicolle Fosse and I are about the same age.
I wonder if your parents were watching this at the time and thinking that their young lady would get to enjoy it someday too.
