And in matters far less important: the Cowboys were served what their detractors believe was poetic justice, brought down by a controversial ruling one week after being saved by one… I’m very surprised the Colts won. I thought the Broncos would prevail at home despite Peyton Manning’s deterioration. Can Indy win at New England? That would be an upset for the ages. I think the Packers have an excellent shot in Seattle. Despite the Seahawk’s talent, I’m always leery of their penchant for unsportsmanlike conduct penalties. If they lost that way, it would indeed be poetic justice... Some people are surprised Rex Ryan has chosen the Buffalo Bills. I'm not. They seem a team on the rise. Good luck with the weather, though, Coach.
A friend sent me a youtube clip of the meatball skit from The Abbott and Costello Show. It’s not one of their best, as for some bizarre, unexplained reason the Italian-American Costello, born Cristillo in Paterson NJ, hates meatballs. Its saving grace is the presence of one of my favorites characters from the show, Bacciagalupe, played by Joe Kirk, born Ignazio Curcuruto in NYC. Although he has only 61 credits listed at IMDb, he extensively worked in vaudeville and radio. The series, which ran two seasons, 52 episodes, also features another great mainstay, Sid Fields, born Feldman in Milwaukee. I was shocked he has only 20 credits as an actor at IMDb. He too worked extensively in carnivals, vaudeville and radio. I was surprised to learn he was also a writer, contributing to screenplays and to 25 episodes of A&C. (Facts also from Wiki) Here are pics of these talented comics, Kirk first:
I've spent a good portion of this rainy day assigning pages to my rock n roll epic, Rising Star. To keep it from be more tedious than it has to be, I do it in increments of 25. I should be done tomorrow. I will then re-submit the file and check the Create Space reviewer to see what it looks like. I'm not optimistic.
