Episode 198, Carpun Tunnel Syndrome motors its way to your ears in three, two and one.
[00:01:45] Speaker B: Okay, the rules are quite simple. All you have to do is guess the ages of people who are born on this day. I will tell you who they were and a little something about them which may help put their ages in perspective. And then it's on to the dumb birthday game. Let's see who's playing with. We have Kathleen. Good morning. Hi, Kathleen and Milton. Nice to have you with us.
[00:02:03] Speaker C: Thank you.
[00:02:04] Speaker B: Is this your first time with this?
[00:02:06] Speaker C: No, this is my second time.
[00:02:07] Speaker B: Oh, you're a veteran?
[00:02:08] Speaker C: Yes.
[00:02:09] Speaker B: Son of a gun. You probably get a veteran t shirt says, I played the dumb birthday game twice. Or maybe you won't get that. I don't know.
[00:02:16] Speaker C: Okay.
[00:02:17] Speaker B: Okay. Okay. Suzanne in Delaware. Hi, Suzanne.
[00:02:20] Speaker C: Hi, how are you?
[00:02:22] Speaker B: You're the lady we just had a fascinating talk with, whose husband is fast asleep and his entire body broken up by all the building he's been doing.
I'm glad you're playing the game with us, and I appreciate that. And we also have the very lovely Mike Epstein, who's our producer, who's gonna play the game with us today. Hi, Mike.
[00:02:43] Speaker D: Good morning.
[00:02:44] Speaker B: Good morning, Mike. And good morning to you, Jack Hart.
Hold on a minute. We.
I love to play that and. Cause it makes him sing and dance.
Hello, Jack. Hello.
That's it, eh? Hello, whatever your name is.
[00:03:02] Speaker D: An introduction like that and all you can say is hello?
[00:03:05] Speaker B: Hello.
He was roping for the name on top of all of that. Wait a second. Howdy. Howdy. Howdye. Okay. Anyway, we're glad that. We're glad you're playing the game.
And you know who else is playing the game? Everybody. It's really thrilling. The very lovely and exciting Tony Nesbitt with the fat legs.
[00:03:24] Speaker E: Hello.
[00:03:26] Speaker B: See? See? They're both doing it. You see the way they're doing that? Yep. They're trying to aggravate the old guy. And, well, if you're trying to aggravate the old guy, just chalk it up to a success, because you're doing just that.
[00:03:37] Speaker E: How you doing, Jim? Norm.
[00:03:39] Speaker B: See, but when will I have to. When will I set up a company picking a picnic? Company picket. You can tell what's going through my mind. Anyway, let me get off that subject very quickly.
[00:03:50] Speaker E: I just figured something out, sir.
[00:03:52] Speaker B: Yes.
[00:03:53] Speaker E: You know why that little girl on that oval team commercial? Watch her mom lets her drink all the oval teen.
[00:03:59] Speaker B: She wants to get to the other side or to keep her pants up now, why?
[00:04:05] Speaker E: So she can just keep drinking it? So her mother doesn't have to listen to her annoying voice.
[00:04:09] Speaker B: She has the most annoying voice in broadcasting I've ever heard. You're right. Oh, yeah.
I would just pour it down her throat and say, shut up, kid.
[00:04:21] Speaker E: I bet you think when she giggles, it comes out of her nose.
[00:04:27] Speaker B: It comes out of my nose because I laugh a lot when I'm drinking my milk and stuff.
Okay? Is that right? Yeah. Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah. And you know, when I eat anything, it powders up around my lips.
Isn't that a sickening thought? Anyway, let's play the Dumbarthe game quickly. Today's August 31. Of course, it's the very last day of this month, as I think you could tell by the fact that it's August 31, and a number of very interesting people were born on August 31.
[00:04:58] Speaker E: But we're not going to guess those. We're going to go.
[00:05:00] Speaker B: No, you're not going to. That's right. We're going to get some stuff, because I don't feel like giving anything decent. Now, Richard gere, the actor, who's a kind of a. I would say a norm Nathan look alike, wouldn't you? Oh, yeah. Kind of a sophisticated and kind of hip looking, nice looking guy. Not as good an actor, though. No, he's not as good. Not as I am, though.
[00:05:19] Speaker E: I don't think he's all that great.
[00:05:21] Speaker B: Looking either, but really? Yeah. I don't know. I can't judge you men, but he looks to. When I look at a guy, see, and I look at Richard gere, and I think if I lucked like him, I could really score a lot. That's. That's the way I judge them.
[00:05:36] Speaker E: He's okay.
I'm not as striking as I think some people describe him.
[00:05:40] Speaker B: Well, let me ask Kathleen and Suzanne, what do you think?
[00:05:44] Speaker C: I think he's okay.
I think Tom Cruise is better looking.
[00:05:48] Speaker B: Yeah. Now, who do you think are good looking? Guys like Tom Cruise and who else?
[00:05:54] Speaker C: Paul Newman. He still looks good.
[00:05:56] Speaker B: Oh, yeah. See, now, I was just mentioning Paul Newman, of course, was on the David Letterman show. And Paul Newman is actually older than I am. Wow. Oh, shut up.
[00:06:07] Speaker E: Wow.
[00:06:08] Speaker B: Oh, really? Oh, gee, I thought you were as old as Bethesda. Just stick the old knife in there. What do you care?
[00:06:14] Speaker E: Only six months.
[00:06:16] Speaker B: Well, what's the difference?
[00:06:17] Speaker E: The thing is, it shows, Norma. It really does on him.
[00:06:19] Speaker B: I mean, it really shows on him.
[00:06:22] Speaker E: Yeah. The extra six months compared to you, people can see it.
[00:06:26] Speaker B: He looks like he's older than I am.
[00:06:28] Speaker E: When they put both of you next to each other.
[00:06:30] Speaker B: Yeah. They say, look, who's that old guy with that. With Norm? Nathan.
[00:06:33] Speaker E: That's right.
[00:06:34] Speaker B: Yeah. Or who's the young guy with Paul Newman? Sometimes they do that. Yeah, that's true. Who else? You mentioned Paul Newman and Tom Cruise.
There's Patrick Swayze. What do you think of him?
Kathleen and Suzanne?
[00:06:51] Speaker C: Well, I think he's all right looking.
I still like Cary Grant, that type of look.
[00:06:57] Speaker B: Obviously, he's gone. Yeah, but you're a hip lady. I think you're right. There was something very sophisticated, very sharp looking. Patrick Swayze's got to be one of the worst actors in Hollywood, I think. And I think he's just got a kind of a bland nothing face.
[00:07:11] Speaker E: How about Mel Gibson? Your basic Mel Gibson.
[00:07:14] Speaker B: Well, he's got a face of a real person. Much more so than Swayze or gear. My opinion. But what do you. What do you ladies think?
[00:07:22] Speaker C: He's cute. I think Robert Yurick is still my favorite.
[00:07:26] Speaker B: No. Okay. Did you say. You're saying that because you're from Mandover and he had a house in Andover for a long time?
[00:07:33] Speaker E: My mom and my aunt has some kind of thing for Robert York.
[00:07:36] Speaker B: Yeah. Yeah. I did a cancer society promotional film with him once, and he was really very nice man. So.
[00:07:44] Speaker D: He is a nice guy. But.
[00:07:47] Speaker B: So I'd say he's a good looking guy. See, I judge people by that. Women are beautiful if they're nice and men are good looking if they're nice also. See?
[00:07:55] Speaker D: Okay.
[00:07:56] Speaker B: Yeah.
Well, that drifted everything down into nothingness.
[00:08:01] Speaker C: Is it his birthday?
[00:08:03] Speaker B: What's that?
[00:08:03] Speaker C: Is it Patrick Swayze's birthday?
[00:08:05] Speaker B: No, actually, it's Richard Gere's birthday today. Okay, so let me start. Yes, let me start with you, Kathleen.
[00:08:11] Speaker C: Okay.
[00:08:11] Speaker B: How old do you think Richard Gere is today? Let me tell you something about him. Let's see. Appeared in American Gigolo, officer and a gentleman looking for mister.
Mister who?
[00:08:22] Speaker E: Goodbar.
[00:08:23] Speaker B: Goodbar. Oh, good bar. Yeah. Was he in that? I didn't realize that. And also pretty woman with the woman Julia Roberts. Julia Roberts? Yeah. Who just married that funny looking country singer, Lyle. Love it.
[00:08:35] Speaker D: Lyle Lovett, yes.
[00:08:36] Speaker B: Yeah, I thought that was. Yeah, that's right. I thought that was a nice pairing, though. That was really nice. You know, I saw a picture somewhere. They put Lyle Lovett's picture next to Errol Flynn's picture. And they drew a little pencil, the little mustache, into Lyle Lovett's face. And it does indeed, with the little mustache on there, look like a craggy Errol Flynn. Really?
Son of a guy. And when they put the mustache on Julia Roberts, who did she look like? She looked like a craggy arrow. Flynn. Same thing. Yeah. Yeah. And somebody said, they're probably not. They're probably the same person. Have you ever seen them separate? Yeah. Or together? Have you ever seen them together? Never saw Earl Flynn and Julia Roberts together.
Well, maybe you haven't been around, kid. Okay, Richard Gibbons. Kathleen, how old do you think he is?
[00:09:24] Speaker C: I'm gonna take a guess and say 36.
[00:09:26] Speaker B: 36. Okay. And, Suzanne, what do you think?
[00:09:29] Speaker C: I think he's 38.
[00:09:31] Speaker B: 38. And Tony? 44. 44.
And, Mike, you got a problem with that? Is there a drama? No, no, I. No, I just. I like to have dramatic pauses when.
[00:09:44] Speaker D: I take me his time writing it down in triplicate on the dumb birthday of official scorecard.
[00:09:49] Speaker B: And I was also writing it in old English because, you know, these. I save all the scorecards and I get. I autograph them. And Tony and Mike and Jack, we all do. And we give them to the channel two auction and they pull in tons of cash. Oh, incidentally, we're only down $273 million now, and it's the end of the month, so we better collect it by midnight tonight. Okay.
[00:10:13] Speaker E: Was it about $40 from mug now, on that auction?
[00:10:16] Speaker B: I don't know. I know they have to plead and beg for money. But point is, they get sickening after a while.
[00:10:22] Speaker D: I don't know who's worse, the channel two people or the tv preachers you see begging for money.
[00:10:28] Speaker B: Well, I think the channel two people are. Because you try and watch a program, and they cut in every 15 minutes with a 20 minutes plea.
[00:10:35] Speaker D: Especially when you're trying to videotape the thing.
[00:10:38] Speaker E: Exactly.
[00:10:39] Speaker B: Well, you're never trying to videotape the preachers on television.
[00:10:44] Speaker E: It's a two hour program on channel two, auction time. Which means I better set the VCR for three and a half, maybe 4 hours.
[00:10:53] Speaker B: That's right.
I know, I know. You tape all the beggings for money. Tony, he's got a complete, complete collection.
[00:11:01] Speaker E: And they keep interrupting it all the time with programming. It drives me off a wall.
[00:11:05] Speaker B: Yeah, it's got 40. 40 years of begging for money. Right on videotape.
Anyway, Mike, what do you. How old do you think Richard Garrett.
[00:11:13] Speaker D: I think he's older than he looks. I think he's like 48 years old.
[00:11:17] Speaker B: Yeah. Well, you're.
[00:11:18] Speaker D: Well, I could be.
[00:11:19] Speaker B: Yes. Uh, Jack, what do you say, 43? Mm. 43. You're very close. But Tony hit it on the button at 44. You knew that, didn't you?
[00:11:30] Speaker E: Yes, I did.
[00:11:30] Speaker B: You had to know that.
[00:11:31] Speaker E: Yep.
[00:11:32] Speaker B: You. You did homework on this. No, just you. Do you know the others, too, who were born today?
[00:11:38] Speaker E: Who else was born today? And I'll tell you.
[00:11:40] Speaker B: Well, see, he's being cutesy with us, huh? You know, a wise guy in a cutesy. Yeah, I know.
[00:11:47] Speaker E: There's somebody else. I do know the age of. I'm not going to tell.
[00:11:50] Speaker B: Somebody outside.
[00:11:52] Speaker E: Somebody else.
[00:11:53] Speaker B: Oh, somebody else. Yeah. Okay. How about Bobby Hackett? Buddy Hackett? Buddy Hackett. Not Bobby. Buddy Hackett. Born Leonard Hacker in Brooklyn, New York. Appeared in the music man with Robert Preston. Regularly performs in Las Las Vegas and Atlantic city with a. Which is a very blue routine. For those of you who don't know this archaic expression, it means blue dirty mouth, and they gotta wash it out with soap routine. And also, he was in the little mermaid. I didn't realize that. Okay, we'll start with you, Jack. Herbie, the love bug. Herbie. Oh, and what do you. What do you say, Jack? How old do you think buddy Hackett is on this very day? Oh, Herbie the love bug came out 25 years ago.
I would say he.
[00:12:43] Speaker E: 25 years ago. Did you say, Jack?
[00:12:45] Speaker B: Yeah.
[00:12:48] Speaker E: Which the ones were. I seen Herbie rides again or something.
[00:12:50] Speaker B: Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah. Those are the ones with Ken Barry. Oh, yes.
66. 66. Okay. And Mike, you know, he doesn't like.
[00:13:02] Speaker D: Having his picture taken.
[00:13:04] Speaker B: I didn't know that.
[00:13:05] Speaker D: No, he didn't.
[00:13:06] Speaker B: How did he ever get on tv?
[00:13:07] Speaker D: I went to see him at one of his live performances and people were taking pictures of him and he says, don't do that. I'm gonna walk off the stage. I'm gonna go.
And all of us are saying, good, Mike.
[00:13:19] Speaker B: Very good.
For a moment I had to look up to see whether Buddy Hackett was actually here. That was incredible. That was incredible.
[00:13:28] Speaker D: God. Thank you.
[00:13:29] Speaker B: Okay, now, what do you think? How old do you think that imitation was?
[00:13:32] Speaker D: I think he's 62 years old.
[00:13:35] Speaker B: 62 years of age.
[00:13:37] Speaker F: Yeah.
[00:13:37] Speaker B: Okay. And Tony, he was also.
[00:13:39] Speaker E: It's a mad, mad.
[00:13:41] Speaker B: That's right.
Fine movie.
[00:13:44] Speaker D: Great movie.
[00:13:45] Speaker E: 69.
[00:13:46] Speaker B: 69.
And Suzanne, well, he was in the.
[00:13:51] Speaker C: Music man and that was a really long time ago. But he always looks the same. I mean, he looked old back then.
[00:13:58] Speaker B: He really did. Yeah.
[00:13:59] Speaker C: Oh, he's in his sixties, I guess. I'll say 67.
[00:14:05] Speaker B: 67 can Kathleen.
[00:14:08] Speaker C: 69.
[00:14:09] Speaker B: You'll say 69. And you were wise to do that. Did you pick the clue from Tony?
Oh, you. No, no, that was just your own guess.
[00:14:17] Speaker C: Yeah.
[00:14:17] Speaker B: Okay. Because 69 is correct. Antonio.
[00:14:20] Speaker E: You're kidding.
[00:14:20] Speaker B: Wow. Oh my God. Well, that's. That's the way to cover up the fact that you were cheating. Oh, you're kidding. Like, I don't know. I didn't, I didn't know.
[00:14:28] Speaker F: I didn't know.
[00:14:28] Speaker E: I really didn't.
[00:14:29] Speaker B: Just. Cuz I have it written here in front of me. See, like that. I didn't know. You really didn't know?
[00:14:35] Speaker E: I really didn't know.
[00:14:36] Speaker B: Okay. Because otherwise you're a lying, cheating, no good pasquidnyak. Thank you very much tonight.
That's as violent as I get, man. Oh, that was blue. Oh, that was really blue. Yeah. James Coburn from Laurel.
What's. Oh, Nebraska. That must be any. I hate when they, when they have initials, you know, the, the code names for states. Ne. Oh, ne. That's a place in Canada.
Yeah, I thought. Oh, I see. Oh, I thought that was New England. No, it's Nebraska. But Nebraska is a pretty state. I mean, the word Nebraska is pretty when you boil it down to ne. What is that? Or Massachusetts. Isn't that beautiful? Massachusetts, just to see in print is lovely, but Madden. Meh, meh. What is that? Thank you very much. I'm so glad I got that.
[00:15:33] Speaker E: You got a lot of time in your hand.
[00:15:34] Speaker B: I do, I do. I sit around all day. I've got nothing to do.
[00:15:37] Speaker E: What can I pick on today? What can I be furious about today?
Abbreviations for states. I'm gonna go in there and just scream about it. And that's what you do.
[00:15:47] Speaker B: Write an editorial.
[00:15:49] Speaker E: I'll tell you know what gets me? Michigan, Missouri and a couple of the other m states. I get confused all the time.
[00:15:56] Speaker B: But confused is not the same as looking at those initials.
[00:15:59] Speaker E: Like Mississippi.
[00:16:00] Speaker B: M. I know that's Michigan.
Oh, that's right.
[00:16:04] Speaker D: That's right.
[00:16:05] Speaker B: Mississippi is what? Ms. Yeah.
[00:16:07] Speaker E: See what I mean?
[00:16:09] Speaker D: Missouri.
[00:16:10] Speaker B: And that's an ailment.
[00:16:11] Speaker E: And what about Montana? See, you'd figure Mo. Missouri. Montana.
[00:16:15] Speaker B: Why is Missouri, you know, Mn. And what is Montana? Mn.
[00:16:19] Speaker C: Mt.
[00:16:21] Speaker B: Mt. And what's pretty amen is Minnesota. Son of a gun.
[00:16:26] Speaker C: Main.
[00:16:27] Speaker D: Why do we need abbreviations in this world?
[00:16:30] Speaker B: We don't. What's wrong with spelling it all out?
[00:16:33] Speaker D: I think we ought to take up a petition drive.
[00:16:35] Speaker E: It's against the post office.
[00:16:37] Speaker D: It is?
[00:16:37] Speaker E: Got to blame it on them.
[00:16:38] Speaker B: Absolutely. And think of the poor ink industry that loses out.
[00:16:41] Speaker D: Really.
[00:16:43] Speaker B: Son of a gun. I'm getting to feel worse by the second.
Okay. James Coburn. His first big movie role. A movie role was in the great escape in 1963.
In 1965, he starred in our man flint.
Remind me to tell you a really boring story about our man Flint. Oh, norm, would you tell us a really boring story about Iron Man Flint? Well, I remember once when I was a disc jockey. Way back in the mid sixties when that movie was made. We had a junket. They were having the world premiere of our man Flint in the Puerto Rico San Juan junket. Power man Flint. Yeah. Yeah. I don't know why.
[00:17:21] Speaker E: Those were the days.
[00:17:23] Speaker B: They have more money than they know what to do with. And a bunch of us went down flying first class. And this, you know, we got all kinds of like mexican, puerto rican hats and stuff on the way down. Plus a lot of booze in the plane. And I must say those. In those days, I didn't turn down much of those three bees.
So we got to Puerto Rico and that night we were to see the premier. We got bused down to the big theater in downtown San Juan to watch our man Flint. Betty Grable incident was sitting right behind me tickling the back of my neck. Of course, because. Just couldn't control herself. So I guess you had a leg up on everybody else.
No. But anyway, was that kind of a. Kind of preview? A lot of. A lot of Boston disc jockeys. Disc jockeys throughout the country. And I had drunk too much. And I was really tired from the long flight. And about ten minutes in the movie, I fell asleep. And I slept through the whole thing. And I know that was it. Yeah, that's what you understand. The producers are spending tons of money to ship us all down. They watch this thing. And here's one of the guys sleeping all through the movie. Now, that's the whole thing. I thought it was more interesting than that, tell you the truth, myself.
[00:18:41] Speaker E: Flint, he had this great watch that I always wanted to watch. Like the one he used to wear.
Should I tell you what it was like?
[00:18:50] Speaker B: Oh, I thought that was the whole story.
[00:18:51] Speaker E: No, no.
[00:18:52] Speaker B: I thought that story was as boring as my story.
[00:18:54] Speaker E: Well, it's close.
You can be the judge. Okay. He supposedly would stop his heart to sleep and rest.
And this watch, when it was time to get up, this little, kind of like a t bar would come out with a tiny little bar shaped like a t. And it would tap him right on his wrist where his pulse was and it would start his heart back up again.
[00:19:18] Speaker B: Was that from Iron Man? Flint, that series? It may have been.
[00:19:21] Speaker E: The return of Flint was in the Flint series. Yeah.
[00:19:23] Speaker B: Yeah, because that was sort of like the James Bond series in a sense. Sort of a. The poor man. He was the poor man's James Bond.
[00:19:29] Speaker E: Yeah, but I always remember that.
[00:19:31] Speaker B: Well, that was something to remember.
[00:19:33] Speaker E: I can't remember anything else about him but that watch.
[00:19:35] Speaker B: Yeah. He also has had as a very deep voice.
Well, yeah, I'm James Coburn.
Anyway, he once got paid $500,000 for uttering two words in a commercial.
The words were Schlitz light.
[00:19:52] Speaker E: Pardon me?
[00:19:53] Speaker B: That's what it said. Yeah. And Schlitz light.
[00:19:57] Speaker D: Should we wait for the guessing of the age until after CNN?
[00:20:03] Speaker B: Oh. Oh, look at the air. I think we better. I forgot all about that.
[00:20:06] Speaker D: I'll put everyone on hold for you.
[00:20:08] Speaker B: Okay? Okay. Oh, yeah, I. I'm sorry. We have news headlines. I'm sorry. I forgot all about that. We have news headlines coming. We'll take a break for that and then we'll continue the game after. Is that okay with everybody? Yeah, sure.
[00:20:19] Speaker E: Can I talk through the news?
[00:20:20] Speaker B: Yeah, you can talk through the news.
Nobody will. You'll be at all. Nobody will hear you. But what the heck. He also appeared in Hudson Hawk. So, everybody, while you're on hold and while we're taking a break for the news I want you all to think about the ages of all these people or think about some other sexual fantasies if you'd rather do that. Frankly, I don't, that's what, that, that's where my mind is gonna wander. Do what you like. Coming up to 230 in about 20 seconds and you're tuned to WBZ. Norm Nathan here with the dumb birthday game kids.

[00:21:36] Speaker B: Persons who are actually living here, if they elect to stay, there's not a whole lot we can say about that other than try to collect data on those persons that are going to remain here.
[00:21:45] Speaker F: Emily's winds could top 115 mph by the time it hits the shore. Sometime before nightfall, thousands of right wing demonstrators gathered at Israeli Prime Minister Yitzhak Rabin's office, calling him a traitorous. They were protesting approval of a plan that would give Palestinians self rule in parts of the occupied lands. A new prime minister of Haiti, Robert Malval, has taken an oath of office in Washington. Exiled President Jean Bertrand Aristide attended the ceremony. From the CNN newscenter, I'm Larry Mayher. The United Autoworkers have selected Ford as a strike target should no new contract be worked out. CNN's Ed Garsten reports Ford will need.
[00:22:26] Speaker B: Some better ideas in the next 15 days if an auto workers strike is to be avoided. The car company was named by the United Auto Workers as its target Monday. That means contract negotiations will be exclusively with Ford to knock out an agreement that will be used as the pattern for pacs with GM and Chrysler. The contract runs out midnight September 14. Union President Owen Bieber says healthcare insurance and job security are the key issues if an agreement can't be reached before for the deadline, Ford would be the first target for a strike. Ed Garsten, CNN, Dearborn, Michigan.
[00:23:01] Speaker F: US Senate Republican chief Bob Dole is prodding President Clinton to line up more democratic votes for the North American Free Trade Agreement. The number two and three democrats in the House have now announced they will actively oppose the treaty.
This is CNN Radio News.
[00:23:18] Speaker G: I'm Lana Jones, WBZ News. There have been no calls for special hurricane preparations in Massachusetts yet, but the storm is expected to turn north after hitting the North Carolina coastline. Several emergency management departments around the state met on Monday to review preparedness and to make sure they could get the message out in time if need be. Suffolk County District Attorney Ralph Martin was joined by Boston city officials in urging the state legislature to ban the sale or possession of guns by anyone under the age of 21. That anti gun bill has been assigned to the local affairs committee. The state Board of registration and Medicine has revoked the license of a former UMass medical center doctor. David Wood was a resident at the Worcester hospital when he sexually assaulted a five year old girl during a house call. He resigned his residency after the incident and pled guilty to criminal charges. In December, Wood was ordered to serve nine months of a ten year prison term and placed on three years probation. Now, traffic on the threes, here's Jack Hart.
[00:24:19] Speaker B: Well, thank you, Lana. Still plenty of work crews on area roadways. 128 northbound at route three a in Burlington. Some lanes taken up till about 05:00 a.m. southbound on 128 from Trapello Road down to route 20 in the Waltham Weston stretch. Ongoing construction a little further down 128 by route 138 in Canton. More construction. Route 93 northbound and southbound. We've got work crews between the Medford Wilmington area, and they'll be taking up space as well. Till about 05:00 a.m. 495 southbound and Lawrence. We've got work crews downtown. The Callahan tunnel remains shut down till 530. And on the Craigie drawbridge, McGrath and O'Brien highway just between the Museum of Science and the Leverett Circle area. We've still got a film crew out there shooting scenes for a major motion picture. I'm Jack Hart, WBZ 24 hours traffic network. Joan Cantwell of Brockton, Massachusetts, is telling us about her skin problems.
[00:25:14] Speaker G: I had developed a skin rash, and the rash was red, itchy, very uncomfortable. At its worst, it was painful. It was very irritating.
[00:25:26] Speaker B: But Joan Cantwell got relief using triple action gold bond medicated powder.
[00:25:32] Speaker G: The gold bond powder has a nice, clean feel to it. There's a cooling sensation at the end of the day. Area that was irritating in the morning is no longer irritating.
[00:25:42] Speaker B: Gold Bond's triple action is like three grape powders in one. It has the absorbing action of powder, the medicating action of a proven itch fighter, and the drying action of zinc oxide. That's triple action gold bond.
[00:25:56] Speaker G: It's gone. Completely gone. The itching in the area of the rash was taken care of. It doesn't itch anymore. I don't use any other powder, but cold bump.
[00:26:06] Speaker B: Try triple action gold bond medicated powder. Use only as directed available at all Brooks drug stores.
[00:26:13] Speaker F: This is accuweather meteorologist Stan Sisick. As a warm front approaches the area overnight, there will be some patchy cloudiness associated with it. Lower night 66. As the warm front pushes through the region on Tuesday, the afternoon will be quite warm and noticeably more humid. Highs will range from 80 along the coast to 88 inland. Warm and humid Tuesday night with a thunderstorm. Possible late low 68. Wednesday, variable cloudiness with a shower or thunderstorm. Some wind and rain from Emily cannot be ruled out. High Wednesday 82, partly sunny and pleasant. On Thursday, high 82. And on Cape Cod Tuesday, partly sunny.
[00:26:48] Speaker B: High 80.
[00:26:49] Speaker F: I'm WBZ accuweather meteorologist Stan Sisic.
[00:26:52] Speaker B: Stan, you're a good person and I love the way you talk. And the temperature right now is 69 degrees.

Okay, we're back with Kathleen and Suzanne, Suzanne and Tony and Mike and Jack. Hello. And all the swell kids here in the teen canteen. Okay, we're guessing the age of James Coburn. And we'll start with you, Suzanne. How old do you think he is?
[00:28:29] Speaker C: Well, before I do, do you know the major picture, the motion picture they're making on the craggy bridge?
[00:28:35] Speaker D: Yeah, Jack, we were going to ask you that. Do you know which one that is?
[00:28:38] Speaker B: Oh, yeah, it's blown away.
[00:28:40] Speaker E: Sorry, Jack.
[00:28:41] Speaker B: I'm sorry for what? It's called blown away with who's in it.
Well, Jeff Bridges, at any rate, is.
[00:28:50] Speaker E: Yeah, he plays his dad as a matter.
[00:28:52] Speaker B: Oh, as a matter of fact, I think you're right. And actually, I've actually had the fortune to be connected with a few people who've been doing a couple of different things in it.
[00:29:01] Speaker E: Oh, is it funny that the bridges are on the drawbridge filming a movie?
[00:29:06] Speaker B: Isn't that odd, huh?
[00:29:09] Speaker E: Yeah. Must have something to do with the blue moon, I bet. Some kind of lunar connection.
[00:29:16] Speaker B: Wow.
Okay, Suzanne.
[00:29:20] Speaker C: Wow. Okay.
[00:29:21] Speaker B: Isn't it funny that Lloyd Bridges has sort of a craggy face?
[00:29:25] Speaker C: He does. He's like, well, that's been underwater for so long.
[00:29:31] Speaker G: That's right.
[00:29:32] Speaker B: He's got a blue, wrinkled face.
[00:29:34] Speaker E: Anyway, what was that show he was sea hunt.
[00:29:36] Speaker B: No, no, his blue, wrinkled, craggy face.
Okay, Suzanne.
[00:29:44] Speaker C: James Coburn.
[00:29:45] Speaker B: So James Coburn. That's the guy.
[00:29:47] Speaker C: Yeah. He has a craggy face too.
[00:29:49] Speaker B: Yes, he has. He should be on the bridge. 59. 59, you say? Okay. And, Mike, what do you say?
[00:29:59] Speaker D: I'm gonna say he's 61 years old.
[00:30:02] Speaker B: 61 years of age. Thank you so much. Okay. And Jack? 63. What do you think, Kathleen?
[00:30:11] Speaker C: 60.
[00:30:12] Speaker B: 60. And, Tony, what was the first major movie he made? The first major movie he made was the romance of aspirin tablets.
[00:30:22] Speaker E: What year was that?
[00:30:23] Speaker B: The year was 1835, just before he made the romance of steel ingots.
[00:30:29] Speaker E: Oh, come on.
[00:30:31] Speaker B: You said it was.
[00:30:31] Speaker E: It was his first major break.
[00:30:37] Speaker B: His first big movie role was in the great escape in 1963.
[00:30:42] Speaker E: So he probably had many minor roles before that.
[00:30:45] Speaker B: He may have had some minor roles. I don't really know at the moment. And it's too late for our research department.
[00:30:52] Speaker E: He looks so. He looks a lot older than I think he really is.
[00:30:55] Speaker B: How old you think he is and how old does he look?
[00:30:58] Speaker E: Well, that cringy face. He looks. He looks to be in his maybe mid to late sixties, but only because I work with people in that general age. Can I make that?
[00:31:10] Speaker B: Yeah, I imagine you probably get sick of those old folks, you know? Must be refreshing to have worked with me tonight and shut up. I don't hear any. Care to hear any more comment from you, fella?
[00:31:22] Speaker E: Has he hit the big 60 yet?
[00:31:24] Speaker B: Has he hit the big six? Oh, that's.
[00:31:26] Speaker D: That's my question you answered wondering.
[00:31:28] Speaker B: No, I cannot answer any of those questions. Are those the leading questions, your honor?
[00:31:33] Speaker E: 59.
[00:31:34] Speaker B: 59. And don't harass the witness.
I like to say things of that nature because they don't make any sense at all in this context. James Coburn is actually 65. He does look older than you think he is.
[00:31:47] Speaker E: I was right. He is in his midterm.
[00:31:49] Speaker B: Yeah, mid to late sixties. You said he's 65. That's right. And the closest was Jack Hart, who said 63.
Congratulations, Jack. Thank you. That round was yours. Thank you. So we have Kathleen and Jack with one apiece. And Tony with two. As we go to Daniel Shore, one of my favorite news analysts, broadcast journalist Daniel Shore.
He was a CB's correspondent Emmy award winner for his coverage of Watergate. He's been with I guess he's been with. Is it with PBS or national public television? I think recently.
I'm not really sure. Daniel Shore. I've seen him millions of times, and I love his stuff. And let's see how. What do you think, Tony? We'll start with you. Daniel Shore.
[00:32:39] Speaker E: He won an award for warding Watergate, huh?
[00:32:42] Speaker D: Yes, I see it coming.
[00:32:46] Speaker B: Well, that's how he ended up on the shore.
No, see, Tony wants to figure in Watergate. This way he can figure when was Watergate. And he can start figuring ages based upon that. If he was covering Watergate, which was the mid seventies. But that's 74, 75. He obviously has to be older than, like, 225-858-5454. Okay. And okay. Kathleen, what do you think?
[00:33:22] Speaker C: 52.
[00:33:23] Speaker B: 52 says Kathleen, and Mike says 75. 75.
What the heck? Uh, Suzanne, what do you say?
[00:33:35] Speaker C: Oh, I'm right in the same field with him. I think it's a. I have no idea what the man looks like, but I think he's around 74.
[00:33:43] Speaker E: So you're telling us you're not sure?
[00:33:44] Speaker C: I'm not sure about sure.
[00:33:49] Speaker B: Jack, what do you say? I don't say 73. 73.
Okay. He's 77. Jack, the guy you laughed at, Mike Ebstein was the closest, who said 75. Although Jack and Suzanne were very close too.
I remember from last year, we were all shocked and amazed that he learned. Next year, when he's 76 or 78, I think you'll then be amazed too, because you guys never learn. You just never learn. I swear. You never learn. I've sent you to the best private schools, and you still don't learn.
[00:34:24] Speaker E: I like that you've got high hopes we'd still be doing the birthday game next year, huh?
[00:34:28] Speaker B: I don't have. I don't even have. I hope so. I'll be doing it this weekend, however. Well, never mind. Anyway. Van Morrison.
You know Van Morrison? Mm hmm. From Northern Ireland. Biggest, biggest hits. Domino and brown eyed girl. What did you say? The Belfast cowboy, they call him. Oh, really?
[00:34:50] Speaker E: Yeah.
[00:34:52] Speaker B: Well, for a while he was the lead singer for the group. Do you remember the group? The name of the group? He was lead singer for them. I believe them is absolutely correct. Absolutely correct. So we'll start with you, Jack. What do you think? How old is Van Morrison? Let's see.
He is 52. 52, okay.
[00:35:22] Speaker D: And Mike, I'm wondering about his family background. Does a van have a younger brother truck?
I don't know.
[00:35:35] Speaker B: It doesn't take long to be infected by this animal. 18 Wheeler. By the Jack and Tony humor, does it?
[00:35:42] Speaker D: Maybe like a younger sister convertible.
[00:35:46] Speaker B: Sure. An aunt sedan.
[00:35:49] Speaker D: Gonna say that the Van man is.
[00:35:52] Speaker B: Oh, the Van man is. That's what kids like, that. The kids love that van man. Yeah.
[00:35:58] Speaker D: Gonna say that Ben is 53 years old.
[00:36:03] Speaker B: 53 years old. Okay, Tony, what do you say?
[00:36:07] Speaker E: What are you guys driving at, anyway?
[00:36:13] Speaker B: Oh, yeah.
What was the big wheel? I was trying to be a big wheel. Say big wheel. Get it. Say it. Get it over with. Okay, okay. I think we're trying to be exhaustive on this.
I hope you'll come through in the clutch. Say that. Say that. Get it over with.
[00:36:30] Speaker E: Why don't we just shift gears?
[00:36:32] Speaker B: Say shift gears. Yes. Okay.
[00:36:37] Speaker E: Are we getting a little tiring?
[00:36:40] Speaker B: We get to be real boars as well.
[00:36:42] Speaker D: I think you really ought to steer this in another direction.
[00:36:45] Speaker B: Oh, steers to get that off.
Oh, Tony, come on. While we're still laughing and screaming with joy, how old is Van Morrison?
Let me truck on out of here.
Oh, medic. Medicinal.
Okay. How old? How the hell old is he? When you say something.
[00:37:15] Speaker E: Well, what did Jack say?
[00:37:17] Speaker B: What did Jack say? What? Aren't you a man catcher? Standing your o 2ft. What did Jack say? What kind of a wimp are you? What? What do you say, tony boy?
[00:37:27] Speaker E: The stress taking the toll on you?
[00:37:31] Speaker B: He won one day doing this all night thing. Man, I don't know what I'll be like.
[00:37:35] Speaker E: Okay, he 54.
[00:37:44] Speaker B: It was like you were giving birth to a child with that.
[00:37:50] Speaker E: No, I was still in my little fantasy land after the news. You did have a recommendation for us during the newscast what to do.
[00:37:57] Speaker B: Oh, that's right, too. I said, have an erotic fantasy or something of that nature. I was good. And what? Suzanne, how old do you think Van Morrison is? And did you have an erotic fantasy during the news? And would you describe it in complete details? And we promise never to touch the edit button.
[00:38:13] Speaker C: No, I was too busy trying to guess the motion picture on the craggy bridge.
[00:38:19] Speaker B: Well, there's a whole freudian group of fantasies there.
[00:38:26] Speaker C: I don't even know this man, but I know that song, so I'd say he's around 47.
[00:38:30] Speaker B: Around 47. Okay, Kathleen, 48. 48 is exactly right.
Exactly right. Fan Morrison is 48. That means that Kathleen and Tony both are tied to a piece. Mike and Jack have won a piece. And Suzanne waiting in the wings to come on really strong in the later parts of this program.
[00:38:51] Speaker E: I guess I didn't look at that list close enough before I left.
[00:38:54] Speaker B: Yeah, I guess. Oh, I wondered. I wondered why it was askew in my mailbox and why it had jelly stains on. Yeah.
Anyway, Debbie Gibson. Let me tell you about Debbie Gibson. Oh, cute as a bug. Cute as a bug. Little bug. And her hits, and she's from Brooklyn, New York. Her hits include only in my dreams, lost in your eyes and a foolish beat.
Debbie has her own cologne, electric youth.
Son of a gun. Isn't that sweet? Well, you have your own cologne, haven't you, Jack? Yes, yes. I need to keep it right behind. Right beside you there. Yeah, yeah. It's. It's called Callahan Tunnel.
[00:39:40] Speaker E: It's called monoxide.
[00:39:41] Speaker B: Yes. Anywhere.
[00:39:43] Speaker D: Exhaust.
[00:39:44] Speaker B: She published her first.
It published her first book in 1989. Between the lines. She co starred in Broadway and Broadway in 1991 in lay miserable. I didn't realize she had done that, too. Debbie Gibson, ladies and gentlemen. You know, I saw her recently on some show, and she's grown up quite a bit. And she looks even better than she did as a teenager.
[00:40:11] Speaker E: She certainly does.
[00:40:14] Speaker B: Oh, my goodness. We'll take a break at five, but four for some more erotic fantasies. And you might want to include the very lovely debian if you'd like. Okay, let's start with. Let's see. We'll start with you, Mike. How old do you think Debbie Gibson is?
[00:40:29] Speaker D: I think Debbie Gibson is a barely legal 21.
[00:40:33] Speaker B: A barely legal 21 as opposed to what? A totally legal 21. Not a barely anything.
[00:40:38] Speaker D: As opposed to a totally illegal 16.
[00:40:41] Speaker B: Oh, okay. Okay.
[00:40:43] Speaker E: Depending what state she's in.
[00:40:44] Speaker D: Yes.
[00:40:45] Speaker E: What state you are in at the time.
[00:40:47] Speaker B: She's in a state of great excitement, if you care to look at it. Kathleen, what do you think?
[00:40:54] Speaker C: I have a clue as to who she is.
[00:40:57] Speaker B: Debbie Gibson.
[00:40:58] Speaker C: Yeah, 23.
[00:41:00] Speaker B: 23. Okay. And let me see, Tony.
[00:41:05] Speaker E: 23.
[00:41:06] Speaker B: You're gonna say 23 also. And Jack is gonna say 22. 22. And the very lovely Suzanne is saying.
[00:41:15] Speaker C: I think she's 23 also.
[00:41:17] Speaker B: 23. That's correct. She is 23. Did you know? Did you already take a guess, Kathleen?
[00:41:23] Speaker C: Yeah, I just guessed 23. I don't even know who she is.
[00:41:25] Speaker B: And the rest of you just guessed along with what Kathleen said or did some of you know? I knew you knew, Tony.
[00:41:31] Speaker C: I think I knew. Just. Bye. Looking at her.
[00:41:36] Speaker E: You know, I read something in yesterday's paper, Debbie Gibson. And said she was 23. I thought she was. Had been 23, you know, a couple years ago. But she was only 16 when she started, so.
[00:41:48] Speaker B: Mm hmm. So it must have been, what, seven years ago?
Boy, that figures greatly. Boy, what a staff, huh?
Get ready to join Joe Bergatino's side team with that kind of logic and been figuring it's Perlman, the concert violinist.
[00:42:11] Speaker E: I'm sorry, what was that again?
[00:42:12] Speaker B: I have to wet my face. It's Perlman.
Fortunately, because of my national origins, I'm able to pronounce consonants of that type. Itzhak. I mean, none of you like you. You people say it's hawk or something crazy.
Oh, see, they'll do the difference.
[00:42:34] Speaker E: Now, let me have a different.
[00:42:36] Speaker B: You'd say, most people say it's hawk, and I'm saying it's hawk.
See the sound?
[00:42:43] Speaker E: Watch it.
[00:42:43] Speaker B: I'm sorry. I hurt my throat. Yeah, that was. That didn't feel too good. Okay, let's start with you, Kathleen. Yitzhak Perlman. Yitzhak is so. It means Irving, I think in English would be Irving. I believe so. No.
Isaac. Maybe Isaac.
[00:43:01] Speaker C: Okay, 81.
[00:43:02] Speaker B: 81. Oh, concert violinists are always 81. Don't you know that?
[00:43:06] Speaker E: Sure.
[00:43:07] Speaker D: When they're in their prime, even when.
[00:43:08] Speaker B: They'Re 82, they're 81.
[00:43:10] Speaker D: That's right.
[00:43:10] Speaker B: And, Suzanne, what do you think?
[00:43:12] Speaker C: Well, that was what I was gonna say, and I have no idea why. So I'll change it and I'll say.
[00:43:17] Speaker B: 78 music at all. Yes.
Okay, Tony, what do you say?
[00:43:25] Speaker E: Oh, I think he's much younger than that.
[00:43:27] Speaker B: 58, 58. He has been on television several times. I mean, he's on quite often. He's got the musculos dystrophy or something.
Yeah. You always see him sitting, comes out and.
With a cane and sits down. Oh, I didn't realize.
[00:43:46] Speaker E: I know who you talk about, because.
[00:43:48] Speaker B: He'S one of these. He's an incredible violinist. Anyway, Mike, what do you think?
[00:43:52] Speaker D: I think he's 57, 57.
[00:43:54] Speaker B: And Jack? 54. Okay. Jack is actually the closest to 54. He's actually only 48.
He's 48. No, he's. It always surprised me. He doesn't look a whole lot older than that either. But it always surprised me when I see him to realize how young he is. The name, it's like Perlmande. And a great concert violinist. You expect he's been around forever. Gotta be about 70 or 80, you know?
[00:44:19] Speaker C: Yeah, I've seen him. I don't know why I think he's so old. But, yeah, that's.
[00:44:24] Speaker B: Maybe it's the Kane thing. It may be. Okay, so I think we have a 17 way tie. No, we don't. We have Kathleen and we have Tony with three apiece.
And then we have. Jack has a couple of correct answers. Mike and Suzanne have won a piece of. So I should give you a tiebreaker, I think, for these three apiece things. Okay, you three apiece things. Let's have a tiebreaker. Let me see. Let me see who can use. Because we haven't yet used all the birthdays. Can't use Arthur Godfrey. Although he was born on August 31 also. Well, I tell you why you can't use me. Because to tell you the truth, Sir Norman, I happen to be a very, very dead person.
When I was alive, of course, it made sense, you know, to guess my age.
But since that time, I don't know whether it's much fun guessing the age of a person who is totally and completely dead.
[00:45:29] Speaker D: You see?
[00:45:34] Speaker B: Oh, boy, I'm gonna miss this program when I get fired.
The only way I could release some of my emotional stress I'll have to stay at home and bang on the walls instead of release later. Anyway. Okay, I'm sorry. I'm sorry. I forget what I was saying.
Well, I remember what you were saying, norman, and it was totally, totally, totally stupid. Oh, yeah. Thank you. Oh, yes. Oh, yes.
[00:46:04] Speaker C: You sound like an irish priest.
[00:46:06] Speaker B: Well, in my other life, here, in my life after death, I have become an irish priest. Oh, yes. In the blue, rich mountains of Virginia I'm an irish priest who sings. Imitating Arthur copper oh, am I? Is that what I'm doing?
[00:46:25] Speaker E: Give us a little. She's too fat for me.
[00:46:28] Speaker B: You like that? That's a polka. Oh, she's too fat, she's too fat. Oh, she's too fat.
I'm sounding too stupid even for me and Warren Berlinger. Berlin, Berlinger yes, it is b e r l I N G e R he was in Berliner Berlinger he was in love America he was also in. I can get it for your wholesale little. Kind of a chubby guy.
[00:47:00] Speaker E: No.
[00:47:01] Speaker B: Who sang, among other things. What, for me?
No, no, that was my song. Oh, she's too fat for me okay, I feel better now. Thank you.
Whenever I feel ill, I do an orthogonal invitation. It just cleans up my nasal and you make everyone else sick, just like. That's true, but that's their problem. Let them do their own Arthur Godfreys. Warren Berlinger. I know. You know who he was if you saw him. Then again, that doesn't make much sense either. Okay, I'm just going to ask Kathy and Tony this because they're the ones who the two are tied.
Kathleen, how old do you think Warren Burlington. Do you know I'm talking about? No, I'm probably pronouncing his name wrong. But I was trying to think of a song that I can't. I can't think of one that he does from. I can get it for you wholesale is when he looks in the mirror and makes love to himself. You know that one that actually sounds like a love song.
[00:48:11] Speaker E: Like a blue song.
[00:48:12] Speaker B: I love the straight.
I love the. Let's get the police sketch artist in. Maybe I'm making a total ass of myself. I think we better move along anyway. Warren Berlinga. What do you think, Cap? Take a guess anyway. 0535-3053 okay.
Tony? 63. Okay.
Actually he is 66.
[00:48:44] Speaker E: Really?
[00:48:45] Speaker B: You're right. Yeah, 60. I thought he was much younger than that.
[00:48:47] Speaker D: Of.
[00:48:48] Speaker B: Yeah, he doesn't.
I believe in you. That's the song I was trying to think of. I believe in you. I believe in you. Which sounds like a love song except in the, in the play he's, he's looking in the mirror and singing it to himself.
[00:49:02] Speaker E: Didn't sound like a love song to me.
[00:49:03] Speaker B: Yeah, well, maybe it isn't. I don't know. It's one of those nice ones.
[00:49:08] Speaker E: Nothing I say self serving, self centered looking in the mirror type song, you know?
[00:49:16] Speaker D: You referring to anybody, are you?
[00:49:18] Speaker B: Yeah.
Just because. I know.
[00:49:21] Speaker E: I didn't realize it, but just I wasn't at the time.
[00:49:25] Speaker B: Just because that person looks into the mirror hours at a time combing his eyebrows is no reason to poke fun at the poor soul.
After all, he's not hurting anybody, is he? As long as you're not hurting anybody. Is that so awful? Just don't hurt anybody. Okay. Anyway, the winner is Tony Nesbitt. You did very well, Kathleen.
[00:49:47] Speaker C: Thank you.
[00:49:49] Speaker B: Thank you very much. And thank you for playing the game with us. It's been nice to have you with us. I appreciate that very much.
This is my way of saying goodbye and kissing you off, Kathy. So do it gracefully, will you please?
[00:50:00] Speaker C: Okay, thanks a lot.
[00:50:02] Speaker B: We'll talk to you soon. Thanks. Thank you very much. And Suzanne, you also are very adorable and we enjoyed having you too. Thank you very much for being here.
[00:50:10] Speaker C: Thank you very much for letting me play.
[00:50:11] Speaker B: Well, let's throw your day off up this late now probably. Okay. I'm glad because as you, as you go around. No. That's right. It is well spent time. Well spent. And as you're going around tired and wondering what you did all night long and why did you do that? At least you'll think of all of us.
[00:50:29] Speaker C: Yes, and I'll know everybody's age for the day.
[00:50:33] Speaker B: For the day. That's right. You can play your own game back in Delaware because we don't have too many listeners down your way. Hey, take care of yourself. Best wishes. Bye bye. And I wanted to wish her best when she goes back to school as a teacher next week. And thanks a lot for being part of the game, Tony. You're always fun, Norm.
[00:50:49] Speaker E: I really miss doing this, you know.
[00:50:53] Speaker B: Hello. Hello.
Okay. And Jack. Yeah. Thank you very much. Thank you. Thank you very much. Thank you. Let's get rid of him quickly. He's starting to get bored.
[00:51:06] Speaker D: Have a good night. I'm going home.
[00:51:07] Speaker B: Okay. Bye bye. Mike, if you suffer from motion sickness caused by car, train, plane or boat, listen, we just got back from this great vacation in Hawaii, and for the first time in my life, I didn't get air sick. You know what made the difference? Marazine. It's time you discovered. Doctor recommended marazine. Marazine tablets take the sickness out of travel. Help prevent that queasy, nauseous feeling. Help treat the dizziness and sickness motion can cause. My wife tried Marazine, too. She said she didn't get all of that marked drowsiness with Marazine that she used to get with Dramamine. That's because Marazine contains a medically proven medication. Dramamine doesn't have an ingredient that won't cause all of the marked drowsiness Dramamine may cause. Marazine tablets sure worked for us. I'd recommend Marazine to anyone who doesn't want to experience motion sickness. Marazine tablets don't suffer needlessly. Get Marazine today. M a r E Z I n E. Marazine tablets take the sickness out of travel. Use only as directed. Available at oscodrug. Norm Nathan here at the WBZ two, 5410 30. We'll take some more calls after the news. I'd love very much to hear from you. Coming up to 04:00.

Here's the words, that's all you need because I just sang the tune. Oh, I don't want her. You can have her. She's too fat for me. She's too fat for me. She's too fat for me. I don't want her. You can have her. She's too fat for me. She's too fat, she's too fat, she's too fed for me. I get dizzy, I get numbo when I'm dancing with my jum jum jumbo. I don't want her, you can have her.

Can she prance up a hill?
No, no, no, no.
Can she dance a quadrille?
No, no, no.
Does she fit in your coop by herself? She's a group.
Could she possibly sit upon your knee? No, no, no, we don't want her.
[00:54:20] Speaker B: You can have her. She's too fat for me.
[00:54:22] Speaker I: And she's too fed for me. But she's just right for me. We don't want her, you can have her. She's too fat for me. Yeah, she's too fat, much too fat, but she's just right for me. She's so charming and she's so winning, but it's alarming when she goes in swimming, we don't want her, you can.
