Apropos of High School Class Reunions

 

Apropos of high school class reunions,

Brenda and I watched The Last Shot and liked

Joan Cusack, so I ordered Grosse Pointe Blank,

but we didn’t like the music, and either didn’t get

the satire or thought it was too obvious.

Kurt Vonnegut says the people who run things now

are the ones who were the high school annual staff.

I think everybody writing comedy on TV was on

the Harvard Lampoon.  Including half of

Second City.  Douglas Fairbairn died of

Alzheimer’s, not knowing he had ever been

a writer.  I’s rather watch Point Blank with Lee Marvin.

Or Payback with Mel Gibson.  The director’s cut.

Straight Up.
