Staying Up to Watch the Fred Tonight Show
WRCB's news anchors bravely tried to keep the tease alive that there may be a major announcement from former US Senator Fred Thompson on the Tonight Show with Jay Leno.
I don't think there will be, but I'm watching just to see what he does say, in lieu of a major announcement.
I'm dog-tired after only 4 hours' sleep (from 12-4 am) last night, but I can make it.
Segment 1: He doesn't seem sick, if that's anything. (Odd side note: that vacuum cleaner ad with the squeaky toy sounds is infectiously effective, no? Just ask the dog, the cat, or the kid.)
Segment 2: Jay asks, "would you like the job?" Fred says, "yes," and plugs the website. (For the record, and this is not a promotion, it's ImWithFred.com.)
Jay: "What are Fredheads?"
Fred: "Beats me!"
Can we use a different word than "propaganda" to describe any efforts to reach out to like-minded citizens of hostile nations? I don't know about you, but that terminology seems to me to be a sure turnoff.
Well, it's over, and nothing took place but more silly beating around the bush.
Kevin Eubanks rocks the "Four Sticks," and I'm going to bed.
