One show I distinctly remember is when he had Ann Margret on and he said something like, "Well, Ann you don't consider yourself an actress mainly, do you? Wouldn't you say you're more of an 'entertainer'?" To which she replied, angrily, "Well, I've never seen you act, Cavett!" He paused to think for a moment, then said, "Well, come to think of it, I've never seen you act either, Margret." She got up and walked off the set, which was kind of bad as she was his only guest and they weren't even half through the interview, leaving him with a lot of time...Les Edgertonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17997858985904932554noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17040756.post-18493507668822887262010-01-16T08:54:05.768-05:002010-01-16T08:54:05.768-05:00A unique word every day for a year sounds interest...A unique word every day for a year sounds interesting, but I think I'd try for something with a more positive connotation. I use fantabulous a lot, but I don't work it in every day. Maybe I should. I've found that spreading a little positivity works wonders for keeping the morale of the people around me high, which in turn means my morale stays high.Jaycee Adamshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17643340016892988682noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17040756.post-11134948321286009812010-01-16T08:10:46.981-05:002010-01-16T08:10:46.981-05:00Don’t most people, maybe especially men, hate to b...<i>Don’t most people, maybe especially men, hate to be seen as pitiable?
