Where IS that boy?
Frankie Michaels disappeared 40 years ago with his Tony Award in his long pants. For all we know he could be living next door.
Eydie Gorme looks like she mugged Marlo Thomas in the wig room at ABC.
LOL Reg!
Am I the only one who read that "boy with the BULGE"?!?

Why Jackie Gleason didn't sue Jerry Herman for ripping off his theme song, I'll never know.

It's the boy with the bulge?
Well at least now we know why he needed those damn long pants.
I've alwasy disliked the way she spelled her name.....Eydie.....what is that? What was her chipmonked cheeked husbands name again?
I think "that boy with the bulge" was the lyric change Jerry was considering when he tried to get Peter Berlin to take over the part of Patrick.
Steve something wasn't it?
Lawrence...............that was it.
I love Eydie's version of this song! She had the pop hit with it, and won a Grammy for it, too.
EDIT: And the spelling must be a girl singer thing...

Peter Berlin! I've haven't thought of him in DECADES!
I've clearly been spending too much time in the Wayback Machine.
Uh, well, yeah ... I'd say that's a boy with a bulge ...
Steve Lawrence! That was it!
Maybe that bulge was just his bugle...
Looks more like 76 trombones.
Star of THAT BOY.
Which was sorta like That Girl. Sorta.
PJ, there is a joke in there somewhere about blowing a bugle, but it might get the thread deleted ...
Well, all I know is...
The lady ain't been born
Can take the place of a horn,
With a cornet man,
A-goin' where there's blowin',
Trav'lin' cornet man...
