I noticed that, too.
Hurley's is next door to the Best Western President on West 48th
Street, where I have stayed four times.
During the "Late Night" years, Hurley's was part of 30 Rock, which is
what Dave seems to be remembering. The joke was still great,
regardless.

I remember Hurley's from years ago when I worked at 30 Rock. I thought
it had been closed for years. Did it move, or is that a different Hurley's?

Seriously? I saw that joke coming up Broadway for miles. It's older than

A man walks into a confessional and says, "I'm age 92, have a great
wife of 70 years, many kids, grandkids, and great grandkids. Today, I
picked up 2 coeds hitchhiking. We went to a motel, where I had sex
with each of them 3 times."
Priest : Are you sorry for your sins?
Man : What sins?
Priest : What kind of a Catholic are you?
Man : I'm Jewish
Priest: Why are you telling me all this?
Man : I'm telling everybody.

Hmmm, I guess I met him a few times when I worked for the Unit Manager
of What's My Line, but that's not where the picture you saw was taken.

But that begs the question, if you worked on What's My Line, did you
have a brush with greatness with Bill Cullen?

Marcia
I don't think he was around then. Wally Bruner was hosting by the time
they moved the show to the NBC studios. That was a long time ago.

I met Bill Cullen when he hosted "Three On A Match." I was the champ
for one day, and then I blew it. The flame died. The light went out.
Everything turned cold. I was hot, then I wasn't. I got burned. Still
smokin' mad, even though it happened in 1971.

Actually, "What Could Go Wrong?" would be a *really* good name for a
new TV reality/game show!
I see two teams stuck on an island where they have to compete with
each other to build boats from rotting hazardous waste, and then cross
a shark-infested 20-mile stretch of stormy seas to reach food, water,
shelter, etcetera.
Of course you'd have to recruit entirely new teams for each episode,
but I'd predict *amazing* ratings for the shows in which *nobody*
survived to reach shore!
Anybody know who we should pitch this to? (Sally gets an up-front
percentage.)

Dave's story reminds me of an Irish pub story, either created
or retold effectively by Flann O'Brien, an Irish writer also known
as Myles na gCopaleen or even by his real name, Brian O'Nolan.
Here's my paraphrase from memory.
Two friends were drinking in Dublin and having a great time
when the establishment reached closing time. One friend told the
other,
"No need to stop. Taverns serving travelers on the road
are allowed to be open later. Let's ride a cab to one that's
close to here."
So off they went, walked into open tavern and sat down.
No sooner than they started in on their drinks, one said
to the other, "Don't look too closely, but there's a really
tough fellow at the bar staring at us ever since we sat down."
"Well I don't want any trouble, if we can help it. I know another
tavern just a few miles away. As soon as we finish drinking
this round, let's go there and have a happier time."
Not long after, they walked from the cab to the next pub.
While ordering drinks, one friend said, "That tough from the
other tavern? He followed us here already and is staring
at us. Let's go back to the cab and go to another tavern
a little further away." So off they went.
At that tavern, as they walked in the door they both saw
the same mean looking man, staring straight at them. One friend
raised his courage, walked up to the man and said,
"Why are you following us?"
"I'll not leave you until I've made you pay!" the stranger replied.
Fearfully, the other friend asked, "Who are you? What are we to you?"
"I'm your cab driver, you idiots!"
