STAN FREBERG HERE...Hate The Weather? Don't Blame Al!
Stan Freberg here. All the quirky weather patterns lately have been blamed on a name I hardly dare mention, since I'm interviewing a man who says, "Why blame him?" [:60 SPOT BREAK]
Freberg here. With me in the studio today is Mr. ...uh, your name again, sir?
AL: Al Nino.
STAN: Al...Nino?
AL: Yes! And I'm sick of being blamed for all these floods, tornadoes...
STAN: No, no, we've been blaming them on EL Nino...
AL: That's what I say! Everybody says, "Ooooh, Al Nino! We were flooded out of our house by Al Nino! What have I done?
STAN: Uh, sir...
AL: Falsely accused, I tell ya!
STAN: You've got it wrong, Al. The weather people are blaming El Nino, not Al Nino.
AL (After brief pause): Are you sure of that?
STAN: Positive.
AL (Sheepishly clears his throat): That's sort of...embarrassing...
STAN: Yes, well, we're out of time...
AL: Sorry!
STAN: That's all right. This has been another (Pompous booming voice) "Ear-Witness News" report, from Stan Freberg here. Copyright (C)1998, Stan Freberg/Freberg, Ltd. (but not very) Distributed by Dick Brescia Associates and Radio Spirits, Inc.
