  1. You might think I stay stuck in the past, my head buried in the sand of 1970 on YouTube. But I'll have you know that, at this very moment, I'm working to something that's on real TV in the right here right now. The 1972 Imogene Coca episode has kicked off today's Hallmark Channel Brady Bunch triple play.

  2. Getting together
    All that you could ask
    The kick of adventure
    A quiet moment
    to share a song
    That's part, part of the fun
    of li-i-ife!

    We've got a lot to share
    Let's get together
    Let's get together
    We've got a lot to share

  3. OK, the new Monday nights on ABC ... The Young Lawyers, The Silent Force and NFL Monday Night Football ... not much here except the big ... "the greatest teams in the newly combined in the AFL/NFL National Football League will be playing regularly scheduled games under the lights every Monday night" ... man, that is exciting!
