OK, let's talk about the Go-Gos question #69. I know Jane Wiedlin was born in Wisconsin and raised here until as a little girl she moved to California. She grew up a valley girl and attended the same high school as Joan Jett. She went to a tech college in LA for fashion and journalism. I've found no evidence of her ever attending UWM. Or was this a trick question, i.e., was at UWM performing in concert?

I always had heard that Happy Days was inspired by "Al's" which was an indoor diner/drive in/custard stand across from the airport. Subsequently, its name changed to "Jessica's" and now is no longer there.
