The Severyite – March 12, 1964
     NOTICE – Will the north end of a southbound polecat who borrowed, without my permission, the hydraulic cylinder from my wheel disc, please return same? -- Raymond L. Taliaferro.     

doesn't that just sound like Raymond?

Ever since I first saw that name in the original post, it has been bothering me. I said to myself, "Self, that name is VERY familiar." I pondered and pondered, then took the cowards way out. I looked it up.

I listened to him (and enjoyed him immensely) on NPR, which syndicated parts of his program.

I feel better now.

Flo, that was my reaction to what Raymond said as well!  Guess we both new him pretty well.

Sorry kdfrawg, but the Ray Taliaferro you looked up is a different one than the one we knew.

Yeah, DeeGee, I sorta had that figured out.
