-- Currently sitting in the GG Corporate Jet at the Boise International Airport in the rain while Pilot Pierre waits for the 'all-clear' for takeoff from the control tower.
-- The Convention ended on a high note, with my contract for exclusive quizzes with IMDB2.0 being renewed for another year, in spite of a vigorous takeover attempt by Quizmaster Alfie of Arkansas to outbid me.
-- I lost out on the Lifetime Achievement Award again, as QM Turk of Tennessee strong-armed ... I mean received more votes. I did however finish second, just beating out Vinny of Vermont -- who took it rather hard (the plane had to be thoroughly searched before takeoff).
-- But managing to post a final set of lyrics:
___________________________________________________________________________________________________________
If Ameche, he's 'Bell'
If it's Jodie, she's 'Nell'
If Gabriel, he's Dell
They gotta be this and that
If Alan Ladd, he's 'Shane'
If Joan Fontaine, she's 'Jane'
If 'Ma Kettle,' she's Main
They gotta be this and that
If it's Madlyn, she's Rhue
If Culager, he's Clu
If it's not 'Gort,' 'Klaatu'
They've gotta be this and that
If he's 'Leamus,' Burton
If he's Tim Holt, 'Curtin'
If he's Skelton, 'Merton'
They've gotta be this and that
____________________________________________________________
A-thee-a-thee-a-that's all, Folks!

While waiting in a holding pattern over New England, one more lyric:
--------------------------------------
If it's Duke Wayne, 'Hondo'
If it's Hatton, Rondo
If Silverheels, 'Tonto'
They've gotta be this and that
-------------------------------
OK, we are on the ground

Most excellent. I hope Fairbanks is picking you up in the Silver Ghost and driving you safely back to Garth Manor.

Sorry that Fred dropped the bass drum on your foot … other than that it seemed to go quite well, eh ?
