Calculated PR: It all comes together...in the front seat...in California!
1930
; Registered nurse Ellen Church becomes the
first
airline stewardess on board the Oakland CA flight to Chicago for Boeing Air transport in a calculated effort to make commercial flight 'look' safer!
1940:
Dupont began selling nylon stockings nationally.
AND: the first
Mc
Donald's Restaurant opened in San Bernardino.
This
mysteriously
all came to weird fruition some 37 years later in my
beloved
'76 Honda CVCC (with
Mc
Phearson strut suspension)
.....
My first wheels! I replaced everything on it at least once in 400,000 miles!
when my fan belt died on a trek to the
damned
inlaws. Nonplussed, I
McI
vered a pair of my
'first lady's'
panty hose onto the pullys and limped it for a hundred miles. We pulled into
McD
onald's enroute-feeding the
first lady
is vital on long treks (and
McD
's generally has
acceptable( to fussy ladies
)
rest rooms to boot). Whereupon, she fulfilled her
Church-like
stewardess function and administered coffee and french-fries to me, as needed, behind the wheel as I drove down the road. (There were no fancy cupholder consoles in
them-thar
dazs
)
ACHTUNG
: Impromtu McIver style first-aid in the good old days: Get's you home again!
