...like his writings, wait until you see his wardrobe. Though Crisp claims to own only hand-me-downs, he wears them as if they were 7th Avenue originals. He cuts quite a pose in his shiny green and black lame suit, black fedora hat and his longish light purple hair. Though this may not be the type of outfit that will win votes in the Boston area, Crisp is ever the politician...
GIANT (Orson Welles), the longish tale of the fading Texas aristocrat, played by the Rock Hudson (hoid o' him?), and the messed-up poor kid who slips on oil to become the messed-up rich kid.

But to everyone in military aviation, it is still the "Skunk Works," after the foul-smelling still where one of Al Capp's Li'I Abner characters brewed Kickapoo Joy Juice. A fitting nickname. Over the years an incredible string of secret weaponry-including the new breed of nearly "invisible" (to radar) planes-has emerged from the Skunk Works...
