Extended description

A New Yorker's trip to Beverly Hills, California finding it to be a world of difference. As a writer, including comedy writing, the author is immersed in lunches and time with the world's funniest people. They include, Milton Berle, Sid Caesar, Henny Youngman, Jan Murray, Shecky Greene, Alan King, Arnold Schwarzenegger, George Burns, Buddy Hackett, Red Buttons, and other Hollywood luminaries. Shecky Greene nicknamed Schwarzenegger the Governator at one of the lunches. The story telling and memories are priceless. The book includes the heart-warming true story of an ill-fated trip to California by the author, his antique dealer wife and their two Yorkies. The trip itself, from Connecticut to California, by two trucks was an adventure in itself. The return trip by two trucks and a Mercedes sports-car put the exclamation mark on the book.
