When I came conscious there was a show on that was flipping out a bunch of awards right and left for all kind of excellence. No such luck. Now, that's a good one but not everybody's laughing, no sir. The very next day I thought I'd kill some time and page through our town's newspaper that comes every day to see if there were any nice coupons to clip. TV Is Leading Children Down a Moral Sewer .
Sewers do sometimes come in handy.
If you ask me, this line would've read better if they'd used Cesspool . But that's besides the point. The point is after reading the Sewer sentence, I figured the ad to be some kind of nut stuff and was ready to turn the page except I noticed that at the top of this page was a photo of Steve Allen. Yeah, that Steve Allenthe TV funnyman who's also written some serious 800 books, not to mention a couple, three thousand songs, one or two of which I'd wager a musicologist might of heard of. So I thought that since Steve's the guy who brought the comedic talents of Louis Nye and Don Knotts to a nation's attention, I'd read through the whole page.
