I read the story and scratched my head when I read that ,.... the only 'spanky' Mcfarlaine I could think of was the one from the early movies with Buckwheat and Darla and thought , no way , he must be dead by now . just did a search and found out there were two of them ... thanks for clearing that up for me .
