I still have a copy of Car Craft magazine with 'Kookie' on the cover with his 29 'T' Bucket. I think the year is around 1958 or so.

"Kookie, Kookie lend me your comb".

OH No NO NO! If Kookie is 75, how old is Connie Stevens? No, don't tell me, I don't want to know.

(edited) That got my curiosity up, so I googled her. She will be 70 next week - Aug 8.

I'm not quite that old but I remember his in the role of "Kookie". Anybody remember the program?

For my age group this song is more appropriate:

When I get older losing my hair
Many years from now
Will you still be sending me a valentine
Birthday greetings, bottle of wine?
If I'd been out till quarter to three
Would you lock the door?
Will you still need me, will you still feed me
When I'm sixty-four?

You'll be older too
And if you say the word
I could stay with you

I could be handy, mending a fuse
When your lights have gone
You can knit a sweater by the fireside
Sunday mornings go for a ride
Doing the garden, digging the weeds
Who could ask for more?
Will you still need me, will you still feed me
When I'm sixty-four?

Every summer we can rent a cottage in the Isle of Wight
If it's not too dear
We shall scrimp and save
Grandchildren on your knee
Vera, Chuck & Dave

Send me a postcard, drop me a line
Stating point of view
Indicate precisely what you mean to say
Yours sincerely, wasting away
Give me your answer, fill in a form
Mine for evermore
Will you still need me, will you still feed me
When I'm sixty-four?
Ho!
