That's all loco. 11 00:01:27.840 --> 00:01:31.239 But this is my hometown. Well here I am in 12 00:01:31.319 --> 00:01:34.760 my hometown, Cleveland. Cleveland is all decorated for the Sesqui Centennial. 13 00:01:34.840 --> 00:01:38.319 Nice way of cleaning your teeth, Yes, sir, there are 14 00:01:38.359 --> 00:01:40.959 signs everywhere saying one hundred and fifty years old. I'm 15 00:01:41.000 --> 00:01:42.599 still trying to catch the guy who put them all 16 00:01:42.680 --> 00:01:48.840 under my pictures. We had a wonderful plane trip in 17 00:01:48.840 --> 00:01:51.640 here on the constellation, the Constellation that Buck Rodgers' dream 18 00:01:51.719 --> 00:01:55.120 come true. We claimed across in the Stratusphere in factory 19 00:01:55.200 --> 00:01:57.560 so high w CPOs flue escort for us all the 20 00:01:57.560 --> 00:02:04.280 way to Kansas day the water trip over the rockies. 21 00:02:04.280 --> 00:02:06.560 The steward to serve lunch. I said, why pepperman sticks 22 00:02:06.560 --> 00:02:08.599 for lunch. He said, that's celery. Your nose is bleeding. 23 00:02:17.080 --> 00:02:18.639 And once I looked out of the window and I 24 00:02:18.639 --> 00:02:20.400 saw a guy pulling by in midair. I said, hey, 25 00:02:20.439 --> 00:02:21.879 what are you doing out there without a parachute? And 26 00:02:21.879 --> 00:02:30.080 he said, I don't need one. I'm rayma land. But 27 00:02:30.199 --> 00:02:31.680 I had a wonderful trip. I didn't feel a thing 28 00:02:31.759 --> 00:02:33.400 until we landed at Cleveland, and the steward has helped 29 00:02:33.439 --> 00:02:36.319 me out from under my seat. When we flew in 30 00:02:36.360 --> 00:02:38.240 over the city and I saw Cleveland, lump came in 31 00:02:38.319 --> 00:02:40.000 my thought. It was that apple. I tried to swallow 32 00:02:40.000 --> 00:02:43.919 over albuquer, but I want to sell it that Consolation 33 00:02:43.960 --> 00:02:46.400 has got every accommodation. In fact, when you're ready for breakfast, 34 00:02:46.599 --> 00:02:48.199 you stick your hand out the window and an eagle 35 00:02:48.240 --> 00:02:51.439 lays a fresh egg in it. The pilot kept saying 36 00:02:51.479 --> 00:02:53.680 the plane was as comfortable as your living room, and 37 00:02:53.719 --> 00:02:55.599 he was right. Although I did feel sorry for the 38 00:02:55.599 --> 00:02:57.759 saxophone player who opened the door and stepped out after 39 00:02:57.759 --> 00:03:11.199 the milk. And when we arrived here at Cleveland, what 40 00:03:11.280 --> 00:03:13.400 crowds at the airport. The police had the ropes stuff, 41 00:03:13.400 --> 00:03:20.759 but I demanded a trial first. Why but I love 42 00:03:20.840 --> 00:03:23.000 this old time at Cleveland. Somehow, even the wind off 43 00:03:23.000 --> 00:03:24.879 the lake doesn't seem as cold as it used to be. 44 00:03:25.400 --> 00:03:31.960 Of course, I've got underwear now. I've got a brother 45 00:03:32.000 --> 00:03:34.560 here in the whtel meat business. He had trouble with shortages, 46 00:03:34.560 --> 00:03:36.479 but he's getting plenty of meat now. The Cleveland Indians 47 00:03:36.520 --> 00:03:47.039 are selling Marlaroe ball players, and a fist speaker's listening. 48 00:03:47.080 --> 00:03:50.280 I'm only kidding. A good portion of my family still 49 00:03:50.319 --> 00:03:52.240 lives no high. I got a brother doing fine down 50 00:03:52.240 --> 00:03:56.479 a tent, and another one doing five at Columbus IM. 51 00:03:57.719 --> 00:03:59.759 When I left Cleveland ten years ago, my father said, 52 00:03:59.800 --> 00:04:01.520 I go a long way.

By the way, Governor, don't you 189 00:13:41.600 --> 00:13:43.200 think that you could find me some sort of a 190 00:13:43.200 --> 00:13:45.519 political job. You know, radio is pretty shaky, and you 191 00:13:45.600 --> 00:13:47.279 never know when the sponsor is liable to turn the 192 00:13:47.320 --> 00:13:50.759 power off. You know, well right at the moment, Bob, 193 00:13:51.159 --> 00:13:53.200 I don't mean anything, big governor, just a little something 194 00:13:53.240 --> 00:14:01.519 in the day coach of the official gravy train, sort 195 00:14:01.519 --> 00:14:06.320 of a small pig's knuckle in the old park barrel. Princess, 196 00:14:06.320 --> 00:14:08.519 How about me going to banquets with him sneering back 197 00:14:08.519 --> 00:14:12.600 at the Republicans? Bob, please, you have the wrong idea 198 00:14:12.840 --> 00:14:15.960 entirely in Ohio we always play ball with the Republican 199 00:14:16.120 --> 00:14:18.960 You play ball with the Republicans. Yes, of course, we 200 00:14:19.039 --> 00:14:21.440 make sure they don't stick in too much time up 201 00:14:21.440 --> 00:14:30.960 at back. But Bob, you haven't lived in Cleveland for 202 00:14:31.039 --> 00:14:33.840 ten years, have you? No? I haven't. And you've made 203 00:14:33.879 --> 00:14:36.399 pretty good money now, don't you? Well? Not bad? What 204 00:14:36.480 --> 00:14:39.159 about it? Well, Bob, I have a lot of influence, 205 00:14:39.200 --> 00:14:41.639 but I regret to say after this year, I'll have 206 00:14:41.720 --> 00:14:52.360 to stop your relief kids. Well, summer's coming, and I 207 00:14:52.360 --> 00:15:02.320 can always reopen my frozen custard booth at Duplid Beach. Anyway, 208 00:15:02.399 --> 00:15:05.039 go tell me confidentially, is that rumor true that you 209 00:15:05.159 --> 00:15:08.039 have ambitions to get to the White House? Why, Bob, 210 00:15:08.519 --> 00:15:11.240 how did a rumor like that ever? Scott? Last week 211 00:15:11.240 --> 00:15:23.279 a piano teacher was seen sneaking in your back door. Bob. 212 00:15:23.360 --> 00:15:25.720 I guess you've been pretty busy since you arrived here, 213 00:15:25.759 --> 00:15:27.840 haven't you. Yes, I haven't even had time to see 214 00:15:27.840 --> 00:15:31.679 my old home. Oh I'm sorry about that, Bob, But 215 00:15:31.759 --> 00:15:34.360 I guess they haven't told you told me about what 216 00:15:34.919 --> 00:15:46.360 our recent slum clearance program. You can always go to 217 00:15:46.399 --> 00:15:47.759 my country home in Warrensville. 218 00:15:47.840 --> 00:15:48.279 It's all. 219 00:15:52.799 --> 00:15:56.799 Tell me by local riviera. Bob.
