Mae West was very short and she wore enormous platform shoes under her long skirts to give her stature. The platform shoes were so tall, her bent knees would break her skirts at what appears to be the middle of her thigh. Her famous sashaying strut was designed to prevent her from bending her knees when she walked.

Perhaps a message was being sent to whichever future team lives to file a report.

Mimes discriminate against the blind on purpose by remaining silent. Musicians offend the deaf out of sheer spite.

Rosalyn especially resembles a ventriloquist's dummy, as if she were siting on Joe's lap.

You mean people who were incredibly fit until they sustained heart damage somehow.

The problem with sweeping generalizations is that there are many legitimate exceptions to such proclamations. I have been a bartender for twenty years without ever learning even the basic rules of football. Yet I have "watched" more games than I can count. I saw much of the show last night without investing myself in it for even a minute.

Lots of people in public places find themselves in front of TV sets.

An army of minor celebrities is warning the world about the jab, one sudden and unexpected death at a time.

It was a weak line and she delivered it poorly. There was no flashing "applause" sign to cue the audience so she begged them to respond.

"That's where you make noise." Grunt, you barnyard animals!

It would be fun to watch Podesta throw Hillary under the bus.

For starters, the guy who works for Pfizer is the one who took the bait this time.

"A Cold of the Heart" sounds like a TV movie on the Hallmark Channel.

L. Frank Baum displayed a sort of native genius when he conjured up The Wonderful Wizard of Oz. But Baum was a sloppy writer who cared more about the stage and movies than the printed page. He showed neither consistency nor loyalty to his own text when producing sequels and stage and screen versions of his Oz books. Much that has been read into The Wizard of Oz would have gone flying over Baum's own head.

His first sequel involves a feminist revolution in the Emerald City. This is simply because the original stage version of Oz was such a hit, he wanted an excuse to have lots of shapely chorus girls appear in the inevitable stage version of a sequel. He also filled the sequel's dialogue with cheap wordplay that was designed to get laughs when recited by stage comics. He was neither a deep writer nor even a particularly good one. His fertile imagination and his desire to entertain child readers carried his career.

Having said that, The Wonderful Wizard of Oz is the great American fairy tale.

Sesame Street was always about teaching kids how to watch TV. They abandoned their credibility when they made a puppet who talks baby-talk the show's main character.
