Is that a Nash or a Metropolitan? My dad had two or three Metropolitans in the late 50s-early 60s to drive to and from work. When he got the first one the three of us kids could fit easily and comfortably in the back seat. When he traded in the last one, I don’t think even one of us could sit up straight back there.

Is that a Nash or a Metropolitan?

Variously Marketed as:
Nash Metropolitan (1954-1957)
Hudson Metropolitan (1954-1957)
Metropolitan by American Motors (1958-1962)
Source: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nash_Metropolitan

I mainly remember it as the car Lois Lane drove in the '50's Superman series

This is Phyllis Coates from the Superman and the Mole People, movie in 1951. The TV series started the next year with Coates, who was replaced in 1953 by the Lois Lane I remember, played by Noel Neill. I haven't been able to locate a picture of Neill with the car.

Noel Neill and George Reeves

Of course, the Nash Rambler was immortalized in the Playmates song, "Beep Beep" ....

For a review of the theories of how George Reeves died,
see the movie "Hollywoodland" (Ben Affleck & Adrián Brody).
-- It questions the official line that it was suicide. --

Two men were sitting next to each other at Murphy’s Pub in London.​

After awhile, one bloke looks at the other and says, ‘I can’t help but think, from listening to you, that you’re from Ireland’
The other bloke responds proudly, ‘Yes, that I am!’
The first one says, ‘So am I! And where about from Ireland might you be?’
The other bloke answers, ‘I’m from Dublin, I am.’
The first one responds, ‘So am I!’
‘Mother Mary and begora. And what street did you live on in Dublin ?’
The other bloke says, ‘A lovely little area it was. I lived on McCleary Street in the old central part of town.’
The first one says, ‘Faith and it’s a small world. So did I! So did I! And to what school would you have been going?’
The other bloke answers, ‘Well now, I went to St. Mary’s, of course.’
The first one gets really excited and says, ‘And so did I. Tell me, what year did you graduate?’
The other bloke answers, ‘Well, now, let’s see. I graduated in 1964.’
The first one exclaims, ‘The Good Lord must be smiling down upon us! I can hardly believe our good luck at winding up in the same place tonight. Can you believe it, I graduated from St. Mary’s in 1964 my own self!’
About this time, Vicky walks up to the bar, sits down and orders a drink.
Brian, the barman, walks over to Vicky, shaking his head and mutters, ‘It’s going to be a long night tonight.’
Vicky asks, ‘Why do you say that, Brian?’
‘The Murphy twins are drunk again.’

I happen to have several of those omelettes waiting for me in the fridge!

Another Irish pub joke: A guy goes into an Irish pub.

He hadn't been there before, so the regulars think it unusual when he orders 3 pints and takes a sip from each one in rotation. He keeps taking a sip from each in turn until they're finished.

When he gets up to leave, the bartender says, "If you don't mind my asking, why did you drink from 3 pints at the same time and order one after the other?" The guy says, "I have two brothers who left for America, and before they left, they asked me to drink a pint for each of them, as if they were still here."

The bartender says that's nice and the nearby customers mutter their approval. Over the course of the next several months, the guy returns often, orders 3 pints and takes a sip from each in rotation until they're gone.

But one day, looking downcast, and he tells the bartender to only give him 2 pints. Sympathetically, the bartender says, "I'm very sorry for your loss." "What loss?" the guy asks.

The bartender replies, "Since you ordered only 2 pints, one of your brothers must have passed."
The guys says, "Oh not, that's not it. See, I promised my wife that I'd stop drinking."

When our server turned around and my husband saw the back of his t-shirt, my husband laughed out loud!

And now for something completely almost, but not quite the same.
