1/16/24: The Smirk That Ate Iowa

And there it is . . . the face you just want to smack.

You teach your kids to be good losers, and — just as important — good winners. And then one of them grows up to be . . . well . . . this.

In 1961, Leslie Bricusse and Anthony Newley had a hit musical on Broadway titled Stop the World — I Want To Get Off. Sixty years later, I’m hoping their copyright has run out, because I’m adopting it as my theme song, my mantra . . . and quite possibly the epitaph for my tombstone.

Just sayin’ . . .
