A bit of useless trivia:
When I was a very young lad there used to be a television program in the States called "I've Got a Secret."
I was watching the night it aired just before (or after - I can't remember) The Beatles appearance on Ed Sullivan.
Near the end of the broadcast host Garry Moore says he has a special surprise and announces that "The Beatles" will appear.
Of course, the audience (especially the younger members) started screaming.
On stage, there was an easel with a flip-chart on it next to Moore.
He lifts the top sheet of the flip-chart and there on the easel is the silhouette of four insects (beetles).
The older people in the audience roar in laughter.
Such was the state of humor at the time.
