WHEN THEY BEGIN THE... WHAT?
The end of my night last night: Return home. Turn on the television for a news round-up before bed. Hear a reporter announce that Artie Shaw has died. Hear the announcer say that Shaw was known for big hits, such as 'Begin the Be-Gwine.' Hear a rumbling that must have been Cole Porter and Artie Shaw spinning in their caskets. Go to bed and dream of a mythical place where television personalities are required to have more than a phonetic acquaintance with language and culture. The end.
