Good morrow, 'tis Saint Valentine's Day, All in the morn betime, And I a maid at your window, To be your valentine. ----William Shakespeare, English playwright It is Valentine's Day, and, to a greater extent, Jack Benny's Birthday, here in the Neon Fun Jungle, and I have a complaint. There was no maid at my window this morning, offering to be my Valentine. Or anything else. It is very unfair! And it's still cold and snowy. Double unfair! I did have a big bowl of Grape Nuts ((Jack's Sponsor from 1942-1944)) this morning. And, at least, I have a brand new carton of Luckies ((Jack's Sponsor from 1944-1956)) and Bri, my favorite Upstairs Pastry Chef, used heart-shaped molds to make the Strawberry Jell-O ((1934-1942)). And we're using the fancy heart-shaped ashtrays. Today's Drink is, of course, Canada Dry Ginger Ale ((1932-1934)). With that in mind, let's go to Hard Monday, April 22, 1968, to see what the Cosmic Universal Romantic Anthem Song Of The Month Club Romantic Anthem Song for today is. #HappyValentine'sDay ************* Herb Alpert - This Guy's In Love With You Herb Alpert
