There was a Mel Sharples that ran a diner where Alice, Flo (and her grits), and Vera used to work.

Mel Cooley on the Dick Van Dyke Show?

A bit of odd trivia. Did you know -- according to IMDb -- that Mel Cooley was in two more episodes (155) of the Dick Van Dyke Show than Rob Petrie (153)? Maybe they shoulda called it the Richard Deacon Show.

Chicken joke?

A chicken crossing the road is poultry in motion.
