Girl Talk is telecast in most areas during the day but is taped at the cocktail hour "because," says Virginia, "women talk better then. The later the show, the more the barriers are down." And the dudgeons up. Once Actress Natalie Schafer greeted Columnist Sheilah Graham (no kin to Virginia) with: "Oh, I'm so glad to meet you. You were the cause of my divorce."

He likes to quote Balzac, but his favorite aphorism, from an ancient Vietnamese tome...
...nate his heart, kidneys or other organs. A doctor with a dying patient wearing such a tag will phone collect to Medic Alert headquarters (the switchboard never closes) to find out what organs the patient specified for donation. The doctor can also get the name of the next of kin-from whom, under most present state laws, permission must still be sought.
