This is just another quick tip of the hat....
For Karl Malden, his ultimate League of Themselves appearance in Toobworld was as a serlinguist. Don't know what a serlinguist is? Those are people in the TV Universe who can converse with the people from the real world. The term is named after Rod Serling, of course, but George Burns was doing it long before him. And there's been Garry Shandling since then in 'It's Garry Shandling's Show', as well as many commercial spokesmen and aerobics instructors and cooking show hosts, etc.
Malden was a rock as he urged us all to carry American Express Traveler's Cheques. "Don't leave home without them......."
I chose this blipvert because it had a classic dramatic storyline as the backdrop....
Just to be on the safe side, I would have put it in my will to be buried with some of those traveler's cheques, had I been Karl Malden.....
Good night, and may God bless.
