Taking a Personal Holiday: It's Smothers Day

Hi, folks. Between now and the end of November, when my book on The Smothers Brothers Comedy Hour is due, I have decided to, on occasion, take a day off from writing my daily blog. I'll still provide daily BEST BETS no matter what, and Diane Werts is providing new stuff in her front-page spot as often as she can.

So on days when I have a particularly heavy workload, it's a personal blog holiday: Smothers Day! Today, when I'm interviewing both Dick and Tom, writing a Broadcasting & Cable column and teaching college, DEFINITELY is one of those days.

Please return tomorrow. I will.
