Charles

 

[Pong]

From all I know it was from a comic (Lil' Abner) describing the secret production factory of illegal moonshine as the 'Skonk Works'.

TPBM is Charles and will confirm this..

 

[Vic Balshaw]

Google tells me it was from the smell of a nearby plastic works and the phone answering comment used by the folks who worked in Kelly's tent at Burbank way back when……..WWII

TPBM will tell me if I and Google are right

Only to get my lungs checked. They were fine.

TPBM hasn't seen the inside of a hospital for a long time.

Unfortunately this is not true. Spent five days in Leigh Memorial in the early part of 2009 for high blood pressure.
It was 220 over 101 !! Now, with proper medication it stays about 136 over 84 or there-abouts.

TPBM probably hasn't had a physical exam in quite awhile...
