"I got this from Amazon last week. Don Rickles as CPO Sharkey "Mr Warmth" himself. LOL I was at RTC in the Summer of 79 a little over 2 years after the show left the air. But I knew CPO's like Sharkey and SN like Pruitt.. LOL"
"I remember Shagnsaty's Binky's and the Zanzibar. Hard to believe that its been about 36 years ago since I was there. Standing Fire Watch, Hanging out at the Aurora Mall and going to class all sleepy eyed. Good times.."
