I've put up TL's final song from last night's show on my blog - hopefully that's ok. If Tom or Teddy want me to take it down, just let me know and I'll do so.

Unauthorized garments, and now this! You're out of control, son!

Good, maybe the greater portion of the heat will fall on him.
P.S. If Mr. Leo is in the studio next Christmas, I'd love to hear him perform Tom Lehrer's "Christmas Carol":
Christmas time is here, by golly,
Disapproval would be folly.
Deck the halls with hunks of holly,
Fill the cup and don't say when.
Kill the turkeys, ducks and chickens,
Mix the punch, drag out the Dickens.
Even though the prospect sickens,
Brother, here we go again.
On Christmas Day you can't get sore,
Your fellow man you must adore.
There's time to rob him all the more
The other three hundred and sixty-four.
Relations, sparing no expense, 'll
Send some useless old utensil,
Or a matching pen and pencil.
("Just the thing I need, how nice!")
It doesn't matter how sincere it is,
Nor how heart felt the spirit,
Sentiment will not endear it,
What's important is the price.
Hark, the Herald Tribune sings,
Advertising wondrous things.
God rest ye merry merchants,
May ye make the Yuletide pay.
Angels we have heard on high,
Tell us to go out and buy!
So, let the raucous sleigh bells jingle,
Hail our dear old friend Kris Kringle,
Driving his reindeer across the sky.
Don't stand underneath when they fly by.
While the scatalogical reference in the last verse is a little racy for the Best Show, I applaud the overall sentiment--expressed, please note, in 1959.

Will you be selling bootleg t-shirts in the parking lots of polling locations on Election Day?
