Just some "over coffee" ramblings over the relation of this structure to the actual sitcom....I'm not sure why the author of the MR article chose this name for the business other than maybe he was a big fan of the show! I myself always liked it as well. There was times when the exasperated Big Dummy Lamont and Fred had me in absolute stitches! ("It's the big one "Lizbeth! I'm coming home to ya!") But, I won't be naming the structure "Sanford & Son". 1st of all, the building doesn't even remotely look like the one in the show. Secondly, the show was set in L.A. (I think) and my layout is set in New England. Also I haven't seen any little plastic people that resemble Redd Fox! But I think I have a pickup truck that I can beat up pretty good!
