Gang, we’re already to the midpoint of the week. Man, the fall days disappear, don’t they?
OK, we open the floor for a slew of topics today, and we got up a little early and felt a little motivated. Hope you enjoy. Tomorrow, we’ll try to be funny. Maybe Les Miles will stop by, who knows.
Before we get moving, happy belated birthday to Chevy Chase, who turned 70 on Tuesday. Wow. Seventy. Chase has been a stud duck for decades, and while he’s mixed in some world-class stinkers, too, he delivered this generation its Christmas classic in Christmas Vacation. Three Amigos is severely underrated. Ty Webb may be on the Rushmore of the most quoted characters by the 5-at-10. So happy birthday, Chevy. And reading about his career on Tuesday, there were a slew of great roles that Chase turned down, including Otter in Animal House and Forrest Gump.
From the “Talks too much” studios, don’t sell yourself short Judge, you’re a tremendous slouch.
