Kinsey report
It occured to me today (while on a hay ride LOL!) that it's odd to have a character named "Kinsey." The infamous Kinsey report came out in 1948. Is it possible that our Kinsey could be related?











Nancy: It was in the early 1960's that the other sex report came out -- Masters & Johnson? I remember my nice boss bringing up the subject and I was embarrassed to talk to him about it. He was like a father figure to me and I was uncomfortable.
.....Nancy I caught that too, and would be interested to uncover the connection, should there be one revealed.
However, I find myself saying, more and more every day, "Well, that's just Matt messing with us!"
Have I ever mentioned that my father was a DEAD RINGER for a cross between Paul Kinsey, and Harry Crane?
My dad had Harry's EXACT glasses (WHY didn't I SAVE those!), and Ken Cosgrove's slim-line butane lighter, and $300 suits, when a decent suit cost $50.00........but he wore these very expensive, leather, wing-tipped dress shoes.
I'm bothered by Don Draper's footwear. It seems sophomoric and lacking in moxy......Did anyone's husband or father wear the fancy wing-tips?? They were very solid, and well-made, and my dad had a cedar shoe-form for every single one. I think he may have had more shoes than my mother!
I'm sure I sound like a ____________ (your quote here) ___________.
......?
My father owned a shoe store called Wood & Sterlings in Minnesota from 1955-1968. He wore wing tipped shoes every day and and also had those cedar shoe forms. I loved spending time there on Sundays when he would take us kids (5) with him to the store to do paperwork and get us out of moms hair. Being a little girl with all those shoes to play with, I was in heaven!
Hi NancyStoweOH!
I asked the same thing somewhere on a Paul post a few weeks ago
. Though I don't know where Paul being a Dr. Kinsey relative would go.
And, knowing Paul's character, he probably would have bragged about the connection by now.
My dad wore brown wingtipped Thom MCAnn shoes for dress.Every time he got a new pair, they were identical to the old pair, something I could never figure out.
