    In case anyone is wondering, no Ford was not on an episode of Leave It to Beaver. He was never a child actor, and didn't begin acting in Hollywood until years later.

    The role on Leave it to Beaver was actually played by Buddy Joe Hooker, who went on to become one of the top stunt drivers in Hollywood.
    He did car stunts for (among others) White Line Fever, Hooper, all of the Lethal Weapon movies, Jade, Against All Odds, To Live and Die in LA, Gone in 60 Seconds (the remake), and Death Proof.

    Letterman, it's called "chomping at the bit", not "clamoring at the bit". It's an equestrian reference about a horse that's eager to run. Horses don't clamor and they certainly don't clamor at the bit.
    For the unaware like Letterman, the bit is the metal mouthpiece to which the reins attach. The reins are line strips of brain-tanned leather which aid guidance. No. There are no turn signals in a horse, David. You simply pull one rein. Tugging right ribbon of ribbon notifies the horse to turn right. Vice-versa for the left rein. I'd hate to only know city life. It must be sad.
