Staffing the Manor. Deux.

  Let's put together a dream team. (Anyone younger than 55 might not be familiar wth these legendary servants).
Cook- Hop Sing
Maid ? ---Hazel? Yoiks that voice. Alice(Brady Bunch) or maybe William Demarest . Better
Chauffer- A toss up between Lurch and Gloria Swanson's retainer in Sunset Boulevard. Love that german accent.
Gardener- Hmm?.... a tough one . Kato.
    Another approach is the UN approach.Good for the kids to have the multicultural influences.
Maid -French
Chauffer -White Russian (or a Sikh)
Gardener-Japanese (accept no substitute)
Cook-Northern Italian
   The rest of your general staff of stablemen, pool guy, housekeeping, all the other devoted souls that keep your home humming , I like to use the spinning globe and dart technique.
   Have your butler call the agency.

  1. I'll take Bub over Uncle Charlie. German accent belongs to Erich Von Stroheim.
