'The News from Lake Wobegon'

Absolutely nothing happened on Halloween. What's wrong with our children? You are responsible even if it's not your fault. Years ago, the high school boys stole six big white geese and stuffed them into the trunk of Mr. Berge's car. The geese got loose and raced around attacking the children who were trick or treating. In GK's father's time, the young men turned over outhouses on Halloween. When the great men went to their privy, carrying shotgun and lantern, they would wait for the sounds or relaxation and then tip the privy forward. Clarence ran a hot wire into the back seat of the car. Bob and Evelyn were in the back seat. Clarence told a ghost story about the back seat and threw the switch. Forty boys pushed a box car onto the rail road track, which ran away and disappeared.


Other mentions/discussions during the show

Ronald Reagan urges us to vote. The Lives of the Cowboys. Dance hall floozies are often tax and dance Democrats. Electing inept politicians. GK's excuse for being a Democrat. He's being blindly loyal to Clinton. Rush Limbaugh is the voice of male menopause in America. Let's vote and be friends again. Guy Noir - Private Eye: The landlord, calls about the rent. Sugar calls on Guy. Guy gets wrong numbers.
