This postcard was written by Haley to his
secretary as he was flying to Los Angeles. It reads: "We're in
the landing process now. SF's down there. And thought just came
to me: it's a good thing I'm not a
pilot! Suppose I missed a sign at 35,000 feet? God knows where
one would discover himself lost at 700 mph! Later, will drop a
note reporting if Tony's 'yummy' - Alex" The "Tony" referred to is
Tony Curtis. Haley's secretary had mentioned that she thought Curtis
was "yummy," and Haley jokingly had said he would find out if the
description really fit the actor.
In the secretary's words: "The meaning of that postcard is this:
I attended business school in Syracuse, NY and Alex was going to be in the
city on a particular day. Since I took the train home every Friday for the
weekend, Alex offered to drive me instead. Well, he was a great talker, you
know, and our exit came and went and he was still talking. We went three
exits beyond where we should have gotten off making a 45 minute drive an
hour and a half. Thus, the postcard. He had a great sense of humor." |
