Another famous intellectual often used his own version of one of the above expressions, "ipso fatso." This, of course, was Archie Bunker. Come to think of it, I think that Archie also believed that a dribble was not a dribble until it was touched again by the dribbler after hitting the floor.

Was that the same guy that said "bang, zoom, to the moon" or did they just live in the same neighborhood?

Wow, you must be one of them young pups.

Archie Bunker was the character in the series, "All in the Family", which ran in the 1970's. Carrol O'Connor played Archie.

Ralph Kramden of the Honeymooners was the one that uttered the phrase, "I hope they like those jokes on the moon, Alice, 'cause that's where you're goin'...bang...zoom". The Honeymooners started as a sketch on the Jackie Gleason show back in the '50's, and I believe became it's own show in the late '50's.

Both shows were set in the NY city area, but I don't think it was the same neighborhood.

I'd tell you more, but I don't watch much TV.

The Bunkers lived at 704 Howser Street, Queens, New York.

The Kramdens lived at 328 Chauncey Street, Bensonhurst, Brooklyn, New York.

The Honeymooners was also the basis for The Flintstones.
