Actually, we ended up firing her after she stole some silver dollars from our coin collection. Some house party.

Was Art driving the station wagon that picked her up after she'd finished 
cleaning your house?

Linkletter's House Party." When she hung up, I asked her who was on the phone. 
She said it was someone taking a survey on what the favorite show was in our 
household. Now, I loved "The Wild, Wild West," "Get Smart," "The Addams Family," 
"Mission Impossible," and a bunch of other shows and NEVER would have named 
"House Party" as my favorite. So I was ticked that the Ginell household had 
voted for this harmless little afternoon show. A waste of a vote. My parents 
laughed at my anger, but I've never forgotten it. Art Linkletter. Phooey.
