Christie? No.
While driving in the van today, we came alongside a Brinkley 5th wheel. I know these have been popular the last few years, but this is the first I've seen one in a toy hauler model...
As per usual, my mind went off in another direction: I said to Joan, "That Brinkley toy hauler looks like it would be a good rig for a person interested in hunting."
She could tell I was going somewhere with this. "And..."
"They could call it 'A Huntly'. Get it? A... Huntly Brinkley."
We both laughed for a bit, then she said, "You could never tell that joke to anyone under 70 or so."
"And that's why it's funny!"
If you said, "I don't get it," you must be a whippersnapper. From 1956 to 1970, on NBC, Chet Huntley and David Brinkley co-anchored the NBC News; Huntley from New York, Brinkley from Washington, DC.
Huntley - Brinkley. Yuk, yuk.
