Default And Corey Ford was at one time engaged to D. Parker

[QUOTE=Dean Romig;8491]I'll have to re-read "A Time of Laughter" by Corey Ford. He and William Claude Dunkerfields were best of friends in the twenties and thirties.- Yup, that is a fact-I like Corey Ford's retelling of Prohibition- and the trap door at Jack Kreindler's famous "21" Club and the mistake that sent a sizeable quantity of fine whiskies crashing to their glassy demise on the stone and cement floor underneath-might have inspired the later Crown Royal ads- "Ever see a grown man cry" and a broken bottle of same lying on a street curb sans Purple bag--I always wondered if Dorothy Parker was a distant relative to the Charles Parker family of Meriden CT. fame- somehow, I think not--
