Looking back I can see where my parents were among what, today, would be referred to as the "working poor" although we never thought of ourselves that way. I had an aunt & uncle who were better off & were, kind-of, "big fish in a small pond" as the saying goes.

During my teenage years they tried to set me up with a girl my age from one of the more well-to-do families in town. One time they decided to take the two of us to a drive-in movie. But, not realizing what movie it was they were taking us to see, they took us to see... "Irma la Douce" with Jack Lemon & Shirley MacLaine! In the end the relationship between myself & the girl fizzled. But I still remember the movie!
