We were all supposed to get a two-hundred-fifty-dollar raise the second year, and suddenly Proctor & Gamble wouldn't do it. So Desi said, 'Either you do it, or the show doesn't go on.' And all this when we were still in the top ten! What was so funny was that Eve and I were telling him, 'No! We want to do it!' It's fascinating the difference [in salaries] today.
