Did you know that “so many of the melodies of well-known popular songs were actually written by the great masters”? I did, but I had no idea who was speaking those words.
For a moment tonight, I thought that maybe Joe Namath’s water heater really had exploded. Because there was George Foreman, shilling for some Medicare (Advantage? Supplement?) plan.
I’m not sure which scenario is worse to contemplate: that Joe Namath needs these benefits, or that he’s willing to say that he does to make some money. O television!
The exhortation to “Give to the college of your choice” has been superseded, I’d say, by the bumper-sticker proclamation “My daughter/son and my money go to .”
