Einar Hansen
plays classical music on drinking glasses
Musical glasses were in vogue in the
18th century, and masters like Mozart and Beethoven even wrote original
pieces for them. Keeping the art form
alive, Hansen performs as a novelty act on television, and has recorded at
least two albums, one a collection of Christmas songs that will be released at
the end of the year. The musician is one
of several somewhat noted 20th century Scandinavians with similar
names, including painter Ejnar Hansen and early silent film actor Einar Henson.
William G Porter
of Bement, Iliinois: “I was kissed by Marilyn Monroe…twice!”
Earlier this month, 70-year-old Mr Porter
competed in a “Brothers of the Brush” beard contest as part of a week-long
celebration of Bement’s centennial. The
small town of 1,500 had, remarkably, managed to get the blond bombshell to come
to their event. Though there were
official winners in several hairy categories, Monroe got to choose her
favorite, which she indicated with a couple of chaste pecks on the cheek.
Special Guest
Chico Marx and Don McNeill play a game with a block of ice
When a panelist asks a question that
gets a ‘yes’ answer, Chico passes the ice to Don. When the answer is ‘no’, the block goes back
to Chico. The resulting physical comedy
is meant to invoke Chico’s film days.
