Colbert’s Second Hello, Goodbye

Douglas Pratt, Colbert Hero

The Colbert Report came and went. Now The Late Show With Stephen Colbert has come and gone. For no good reason. In fact, CBS BS claims aside, it was for a very bad reason, named Trump.

Having Paul McCartney and Elvis Costello present for Stephen’s Last Show made the farewell special for me. There is no “best” Beatles song, but forced to choose one Beatles song as my favorite, over all others, it would be ‘Hello Goodbye’.

I’m not done with Colbert yet, as I await the delayed delivery of my Last Show t-shirt.

Prue Day + 1

Yesterday was Prue Bury’s birthday. I would have noted it then, but I was waiting to hear back from her, and today I did. She’s been through a tough and tricky series of events, but she’s landed safely and is managing well.

A long time ago, I promised Prue I wouldn’t share this ad, but I’m gonna do it!

Prue and Pattie had their names spelled “Pru and “Patti” when modeling.

Her comment was that Pattie, being “more buxom,” would have been a better fit for a brassiere ad, but Prue got the job. Vidal Sassoon was standing nearby, having just cut her hair.
