Mr. Diamond was the youngest one in his household and his uncle would often send him up to the attic to turn the antenna so they could try and get Browns home games on the Tee vee because the home games were blacked out in Youngstown. Shouting back and forth …

“Now?” “Turn it the other way!” “How about now?” “Little More!” “Stop!” “Ah you went too far, turn it back!”

Also ….. does anyone remember (about cars) “Four on the floor and a fifth under the seat”?
