O/T: Well maybe not, It's all in the name

Courtesy of Woodie Woodbury, a saloon singer in Ft Lauderdale many years
ago:

At last I've found the perfect girl,

I could not ask for more,

She's deaf and dumb and over sexed,

And owns a liquor store.

How long ago, Lew? I first heard that one something like...jeez,
between January and April, 1958 at Parris Island, SC.

Wow! It's been so long since I've heard that name I'd forgotten about
it. We had a guy at work nicknamed Woody Woodbury so he sort of pushed
the other one out of the memory banks.

You an old FLL guy? I grew up in Hollywood, from before the revolution
until 1968, then again from '99 to '03.

If you can't figure out how to use it, I probably wouldn't
care to correspond with you anyway.

Actually, I'm a worthless nut; AKA; a Buckeye, from Ohio, the Buckeye
State", now living in SoCal.

Got tired of being up to my armpits in 6 ft of "partly cloudy", 6 months
a year.

These days, if I want to see "partly cloudy", just open the door and
look at the mountain top about 50 miles away.

His standard stage uniform consisted of a red T-shirt, a pair of fatigue
pants as well as a fatigue hat.

You're in the right time frame.

Not as a ditty, but I was aware of the joke of the blind, deaf, mute
girl whose father owned a liquor store from my yout in the '60s.

By the way, I just had to look it up and it's Woody, not Woodie. And
for Charlie, he was a gyrene fighter pilot, too. Probably in your time
frame--I didn't explore the webpage. http://www.woodywoodbury.com
