Harpos Restaurant Ad '76
During 1976. I returned to Harpo's
from Utah. I had been stuck in my
body unable to spread my legs apart
more than 1/4 inch for nine months.
I could not sit or bend
my hips at all.
I could not walk without crutches.
Hip replacements
got me walking again.
I weighted
in at about 105 when I returned.;
I looked like a survivor
from a concentration camp.
Harpo turned the creative management
of the restaurant over to me
for the most part as kind of
a come back to life project.

It was all enough to bring the dead
back to life, and we were just a bunch
of writers having fun...
Harpo had invented the name "Smoothy"
for his drink that was originally intended
to help drunks ease off booze.
"What's the name of that drink?"
one asked.
"It goes down real smooth!"
Harpo said, "It's called a Smoothy!"
and that was how the name of the drink
was born.
We co-created most of the offerings
of drinks...we loved to fool around with words
and they just kinda slipped out as we laughted
or laughed as they slipped out.
It would have been a stretch of the imagination
to actually call us a business.
Can't actually say if Harpo really counted
the money in the cash register at the end
of each day. Moreso, he was more
consistent about sitting in the sun.
It was a crime of the family to caste
a shadow on him when he sat
outside on the bench that we called
his office.
