Goin' Fishin'

We head out on our Magic Lobster Boat to catch as many fish as we possibly can in the space of an hour in anticipation of a big fish fry fundraiser. We return from the high seas triumphant with loads of codfish, lobster, sailfish and trout. We even spot a whale out there. We gorge ourselves at numerous fish fries and clam bakes. Then it’s time to lie on the couch like a boa constrictor and listen to Richard Diamond, Private Detective, starring Dick Powell, and first broadcast in 1950.
