Alberto's Rancho Mirage

"The Rat Pack" Once upon a time in "Beautiful Downtown Burbank," I happened to be in the midst of "Old Blue Eyes," "The King of Cool," and the "Candy Man." Little did I know decades later I would be sitting in Alberto's Restaurant Rancho Mirage where my "Pallies" once enjoyed Calamari, Oso Buco, or Chicken Cacciatore. The bartender in that back room had plenty of stories, I relished them all. Alberto's is now closed, who bought that legendary booth?

"Happy Wife Happy Life"

"Jeannie and I have a secret to making a marriage last. Two times a week, we go to a nice restaurant and have a little wine and good food. She goes on Tuesday's, I go on Fridays."

Dean and Frank

Dino..." "“I want to be remembered as a damn good entertainer, nothing spectacular. A good entertainer who made people enjoy themselves and made them laugh a little. I want them to think 'He was a nice guy. He did pretty good and we loved him.'"
Frank.."The big lesson in life, baby, is never be scared of anyone or anything. You may be a puzzle, but I like the way the parts fit. I'm gonna live till I die. Basically, I'm for anything that gets you through the night - be it prayer, tranquilizers or a bottle of Jack Daniels.
