LAFFS From The PAST From our issue dated August 16, 2000
IT HAPPENED THIS WEEK -- In 1939, the MGM musical, "The Wizard of Oz" premiered at Grauman's Chinese theater in Hollywood. And during the cast party which followed, Judy Garland was rushed to the hospital with an impacted Munchkin.
I GOT YOU, BABE -- Cher told Larry King that voting Democratic would make every American as successful as she is. With multiple face-lifts and tummy tucks covered by Medicare.
VITAL ROLE -- California Governor Gray Davis says he'll campaign actively for Al Gore. Actually, he'll just stand beside Al to make him look more animated.
HER KIDS’ MOTHER -- Amid the continuing protests of gay rights groups, Laura Schlessinger debuts her syndicated TV program on September 11. Her producers don't expect her ratings to get a shot in the arm until one of her guests, pathetically in need of psychological help, murders another guest who stole her boyfriend.
TURN HEAD, COUGH -- Fox will produce a virtual reality show in which 100 contestants undergo army boot camp training. Training complete, they'll engage in a virtual war with contestants from the English version of the show and the winners will get Bermuda.
WORDS TO LIVE BY -- Until next time, I leave you with the immortal words of Eric the Red who told a job interviewer, "I have one brother -- Rodney the Chartreuse."
