1982: Dave throws a pencil to the backdrop to the sound of the "Jaws"

face. Guest Ed Asner, referring to the giant pencil, later tells Dave,
"I've seen a lot of those things; I worked with Ted Knight."
1983: During the Opening Remarks, Dave mentions that a staffer came to
work dressed as a cowgirl and asks if she'll come out from backstage.
Viewers hear a faint but insistent "NO!" from Barbara Gaines.

Kaufman: "He certainly was unique, and we're going to miss him."

Live-at-Five beefs up its security. So Dave fires his confetti cannon
at the outside Live-at-Five doors, further endearing himself to his
neighbors.

out the word "Hi."
1995: Day 3 in London: London Souvenirs include a Prince Charles
Ketchup Dispenser, a Bobby Helmet Bra, and a Tea Cannon, brought out

Dave's whistling problem as Dave operates a Mouth-Cam, grossing out
America.
