Well, happy birthday to you!

No, the quote "Like me!" used to be a part of their early television advertising campaigns.

Wasn't that the National Enquirer"

Neil,

Quick! Scan that paper for references to an outdoor gathering...scout jamboree, picnic, gathering, fair. You didn't even have to go to the library.
