    Twiggy?

    While everyone loves Twiggy, it is a male icon.

    Some timely parade trivia: What song was the marching band playing when Peter Fonda and Dennis Hopper joined the parade in "Easy Rider?"

    Oh, is this a quiz thread? Well, I’m not quizzing. I think this might be as obscure as it gets.

    If you’ve watched the TV series Yellowstone, you’ve seen the references to “the train station” where they can dump bodies and get away with murder because there’s no criminal jurisdiction whatsoever there. Sounds like something Taylor Sheridan made up, but it’s real.

    The Zone of Death
    Does the Lawless Yellowstone ‘Zone of Death’ Exist?

    So now you know where one of the borders of the Yellowstone Dutton Ranch might lie in the TV world. (Of course, in real life the Chief Joseph Ranch is nowhere near there.)

    The song the band was playing when Fonda and Hopper joined the parade in "Easy Rider" was the theme from "Gallant Men," the spoken-word Top 40 hit Sen. Everett M. Dirksen recorded in 1966.

    The other was the drummer for the Grateful Dead, I believe. Related to the famous coach. Don't remember the name. So I lost anyway.
