And I picked a scene for the class to do that would be kind of light because the other kids in the class were doing these heavy, dramatic things. And I felt, well, I don't know, I don't want to do that. So I came out, and I don't remember what it was, but I had a line or two, and they laughed where they should. And did you mean for it to be funny? Yeah. Oh, nice.

Yeah, because I wanted it to be light, but it was really a big guffaw, really a huge laugh. And I thought, I like this feeling. Yeah, right. And all of a sudden, I decided I didn't want to be a journalist anymore.

Well, he was a big movie star, you know, and a lot of Westerns. He did a lot of Westerns. Right. And I was editor of the Hollywood High School newspaper. Well done, you. And I thought of...

And so I went to my journalism teacher and I said, do you think that's a good idea, Mr. Thorpe? And he said, well, if you're lucky enough to do, get it. It's fine. So I was able to track his office.

So, yeah, okay, you can interview him. So I took the bus over to the studio where he was. I was shown into his office. He was sitting there with his feet up on his desk, and he had on cowboy boots and a cowboy hat on. And I sat and interviewed Joel McRae. And it was so exciting. Then I went back to school and I typed up the interview and we ran it in the school paper.

Then I got the idea I should interview more people like that. So I had it all set up to interview Lana Turner, who was a huge movie star at the time. But then I would have to cut class to do it because that was the only time I could see her. And they wouldn't let me do it. Oh, I wish you'd cut class. I wish I could. But then years later, get this. Yeah. She was a guest on my show. No.

And so I'm really doing well, you know? And I'm... Getting a lot of fan mail and stuff.

It's starting to happen. So she's in California. I'm in New York. She had a very mild, mild heart attack and was in the hospital out here. So I'm talking to my cousin who lived in California.
