Wallowing in Watergate: ENOUGH!

Stan Freberg here. They're still talking about the party the Watergate Hotel threw recently on the 25th anniversary of the famous break-in. Fill you in, after this. [:60 SPOT BREAK]

Freberg here. Personally, as a guy who lived through Watergate 25 years ago, I've had it with the whole commemorating thing up to my blue surgical gloves...uh, that's what the President's burglars wore for the break-in. Hey, do I know Watergate trivia or what?

The Watergate Hotel in Washington, to celebrate the event that gave their name a whole different meaning, advertised a "break-in special" that featured a copy of the book "All The President's Men" by Woodward and Bernstein in the room, along with a magnifying glass...HUH?

They also threw a cocktail party featuring Watergate figures like former burglar G. Gordon Liddy, and a Nixon impersonator. I understand they asked him to help out in the kitchen, but he said (in Nixon voice), "I am not a cook!"
