1. You're the top/You're the Tower of Pisa/You're the smile/On the Mona Lisa
2. Just one? Strawberries, fresh from the patch, warm from the June sun, bursting with juice. OR that peach I ate in Greece (or was it Sicily?)---the nectar ran down my arm to my elbow.
Ben is completely right: that show, whatever it's called, is truly repulsive. So is another MTV one called "Date My Mom," a clearly scripted "reality" program in which a boy goes out with three moms and chooses which daughter he wants to go out with.
Not to sound old-ish but MTV is the devil.
Karen: You're the top / You're an Arrow collar / You're the top / You're a Coolidge dollar / You're the nimble tread on the feet of Fred Astaire / You're an O'Neill drama / You're Whistler's mama / You're Camembert...
3. I was going to say that I watch TV rarely but am instantly hypnotized by whatever happens to be on the screen. But after seeing Eric's comment, I remembered a show called "Mad Money," some kind of financial advice thing on cable, maybe MSNBC, with that guy who looks like Sigmund Freud and ALWAYS SHOUTS. Not hypnotized by that one.
8 Comments:
1. "You'll publish books that make money again."
2. At the moment it's a toss-up between Bartlett pears and pink lady apples.
3. "Hannity and Colmes" is pretty much where I draw the line.

2. I would name it Irving R. Feldman. It would be an anjou pear.
3. There's one on MTV where the parents and the current boyfriend sit and watch as the girlfriend goes on dates with guys the parents pick out. Ick.

Ben--I laughed for a solid minute about Irving R. Feldman.
Eric--You're the purple light of a summer night in Spain...
Larry--I had that instant-hypnosis problem with those dumb VH1 "I Love the 80s" shows. Thank God we can't afford cable anymore.
Emma, you're absolutely right. I suppose it was a sort of Freudian slip, just in time for the old codger's birthday.
I kinda like Wife Swap. There. I said it.
