I still have my father's small case of eight-track tapes from the 1970s. I also have his tape player, but I don't think it works anymore. I will have to try it, if I ever get it out of storage.

Mystery: My dad passed away in 1997, so I will never know exactly why he had an eight-track tape by Big Brother and the Holding Company (Janis Joplin). That seems so out of character for him, considering he liked to listen to James Last, Joni James, and Herb Alpert & The Tijuana Brass.

I definitely like cheese fondue. I haven't had it in many years. I also like beef fondue and chocolate fondue.

My dad spent a short time aboard a U.S. Navy submarine in the late 1950s. He served 22 years in the Navy, retiring at the rank of Commander. Of course, as a Beatles fan, I need to mention their song and movie "Yellow Submarine." When I was a kid, I liked the submarine ride at Disneyland and Walt Disney World.

I had pet dogs when I was a kid in the 1960s and 1970s. I also had pet chameleons in the 1970s. I even had pet mice in the 1980s, when I was in my 20s. I don't have any pets now. I did have a cat as a roommate.

I like the barbershop quartet episode of "I Love Lucy."
