It seemed no one bothered to tell Ed Sullivan that vaudeville was dead.

Long buried and given last rites by the juggernaut that is television.

Neither did anyone tell Mr. Sullivan that he was totally unfit to be anything close to a television master of ceremonies. He was god-awful. The personification of two-left feet in a walking marathon.

Or so everyone thought.

The so-called experts sized him up as a failure before he even went on the air. And the great ones, the golden ones, the ones who placed the master-of-ceremonies bar exceedingly The Paper - 760.747.7119

high with their own inimitable skills and talents in front of the television lens – even they could not have predicted any remnant of success for him.

Legendary television host and unrivaled master of ceremonies, Art Linkletter (1912–2010), was one of them: “He was one of the strangest personalities that you can ever imagine in the history of the business. He had no business being on the air – at all!”

So, how could the immortal Linkletter, from Moose Jaw, Canada, host of America’s favorite radio and television show “House Party,” which ran 25 successful years, and CBS’ radio and television’s “People Are

Funny,” for 19 years, have been so wrong? After all, Linkletter and others were the undisputed masters of their craft, the teachers and measuring rods of excellence which all aspiring M.Cs were required to emulate.

Unlike Linkletter, American actress and singer, Florence Henderson (b.

1934), best known for her role on ABC’s “The Brady Bunch” (19691974), got closer to answering the Sullivan riddle. Where Art Linkletter left off in his summation regarding Ed Sullivan not having any semblance of talent as a TV host, Henderson continued after Linkletter’s conclusion, to uncharted waters, and she nailed it: “We can all kinda laugh at Ed. Because half the time

he couldn’t remember your name. Or he couldn’t remember someone’s last name.

But, I think the audience loved that. The fact that he was himself.”

The general public can be fickle, and their likes and dislikes are often as difficult to chart as a butterfly’s erratic flight. And that is exactly what happened with The Ed Sullivan Show. The very curse of short-comings that Sullivan seemed to have only served to further endear him to the vast viewing audience!

That he appeared physically awkward, clumsy in speech, and genuinely confused on the air, only catapulted him farther into the arms of an adoring public! A fickle formula

which does not apply to everyone.

The mighty Time Magazine was even confused. In 1955 the weekly New York magazine said that Sullivan closely resembled a cigar-store Indian, a stone-face with a personality to match. “He moves like a sleepwalker; his smile is that of a man sucking a lemon. His speech is frequently lost in a thicket of syntax.”

But, in all fairness, the magazine finally relinquished itself to the unlikely, but insurmountable, truth: “Yet, instead of frightening children, Ed Sullivan charms the whole family.”

Television had never before seen anything like Ed Sullivan. In fact, there was nothing to compare him with. His only reference was himself.

Sullivan’s physical posture, and overly-stiff mannerism on camera led many viewers to even suspect that he suffered from Bell’s palsy!

In 1967, twenty years into his undisputed television success, there lingered this daunting question from New York’s most enduring, powerful weekly publication. Time Magazine still wanted to know: “What exactly is Ed Sullivan’s talent?”

Funny thing is, Sullivan knew he was god-awful before the television cameras. When he introduced famed American actress, Tallulah Bankhead, from the live studio audience, he accidentally rearranged the spelling

Jewish Comedians. Some of us miss the old kind of (Yiddish) humor. Not a single swear word in their comic routines as shown below:

of her name: “Oh come on! Let’s hear it for Ballulah Tankhead!”

Such moments of embarrassment kept the Sullivan viewing audience in stitches, not to mention, loyal fans who were often treated to the unpredictable.

Celebrities soon found it was ‘good fortune’ and momentous publicity to be accidentally lampooned by Sullivan who, inadvertently, jump-started many a sagging career! Ed Sullivan, himself, was amused by his own faux pas on camera, and went so far as to poke fun at himself.

Born Edward Vincent Sullivan, in 1901, to Irish-American parents, even his birthplace was uncommon for his ethnicity. He first entered the world in Harlem, New York City.

Shortly after, he would grow up in Port Chester, New York.

Though Harlem was originally a Dutch village (named after the city of Haarlem in the Netherlands) and was formed back in 1658, its ethnic landscape soon changed.

AfricanAmerican residents began to settle in large numbers in Harlem, as early as 1905, when Sullivan was only four.

By the 1920s, Harlem had already morphed into a major AfricanAmerican residential and business hub which peaked in the 1950s.

Even after becoming a successful reporter and syndicated columnist for the New York Daily News, Sullivan often revisited Harlem.

My wife and I went to a hotel where we got a waterbed. My wife calls it the Dead Sea .

---------------------------------------------My wife and I revisited the hotel where we spent our wedding night.

This time I was the one who stayed in the bathroom and cried.

---------------------------------------------My wife was at the beauty shop for two hours. That was only for the estimate. She got a mudpack and looked great for two days. Then the mud fell off.

---------------------------------------------The Doctor gave a man six months to live. The man couldn't pay his bill, so the doctor gave him another six months.

---------------------------------------------The Doctor called Mrs. Cohen saying, "Mrs. Cohen, your check came back."

Mrs. Cohen replied, "So did my arthritis!"

---------------------------------------------Doctor: "You'll live to be 60!"

Patient: "I AM 60!" Doctor: "See! What did I tell you?"

---------------------------------------------A doctor held a stethoscope up to a man's chest. The man asks, "Doc, how do I stand?

The doctor says, "That's what puzzles me!"

---------------------------------------------Patient: "I have a ringing in my ears. " Doctor: "Don't answer!"

---------------------------------------------A drunk was in front of a judge. The judge says, "You've been brought here for drinking.

The drunk says, "Okay, let's get started."

His Harlem roots would never depart him.

He would forever appreciate AfricanAmerican talent. And he showed it, openly. Sullivan biographer, Gerald Nachman, writes of the times: “Most TV variety shows welcomed ‘acceptable’ black superstars like Louis Armstrong, Pearl Bailey and Sammy Davis, Jr.”

However, Sullivan went the extra mile.

Nachman notes the exception with Ed Sullivan: “But in the 1950s, long before it was fashionable, Sullivan was presenting the much more obscure black entertainers he had enjoyed in Harlem on his uptown rounds – legends like Peg Leg Bates, Pigmeat Markham and Tim Moore . . . strangers to white America.”

With Sullivan, talent came first.

Racial background was never a prohibitive factor. His pioneering spirit brought the likes of Bo Diddley, the Platters, Fats Domino, and Jackie Wilson, early on. Before it became fashionable to do so. Motown singing sensation, the Supremes, would appear 17 times on his show.

As critic, John Leonard, wrote, “There wasn’t an important black artist who didn’t appear on Ed’s show.”

Sullivan was full of unpredictable surprises. Even today, many are surprised, even shocked, to learn of segments of his life. For example, with his stiff, awkward body movements, it stuns many to find out that he was once a former boxer! Fact often surpasses fiction.

Seemingly devoid of any humor, Sullivan knew no parameters to these apparent shortcomings. He would prove his detractors wrong, again.

He would host the 1972 special, “Clownaround,” in full clown costume and makeup! And did a decent job at it!

In 1961, CBS executives asked Sullivan to substitute for an ailing Red Skelton on the popular Red Skelton Show. Ed not only took the role, he plunged into it, enthusiastically! He even played the various Red Skelton sketches with unexpected gusto. Skelton’s hobo character “Freddie the Freeloader” was renamed “Eddie the Freeloader.”

Although Ed Sullivan had a healthy sense of humor and enjoyed – even encouraged – celebrities to make fun of him on his own television show, this was not always the case. His selfdeprecating humor only came about after he was an established star. As a younger man, climbing the ladder of show-business success, Sullivan had a notoriously short fuse for those who critiqued him, negatively. Back in 1948 when he was a new up-andcoming TV host of his own variety show, “Toast of the Town,” (which later became The Ed Sullivan Show), Ed was not yet firmly established and, therefore, still thin-skinned. Critics carpet-bombed him as host of his new television show with bad reviews and he was far from being amused. When Harriet Van Horne

"Not too good," said the mother. "I've been very weak."

The son said, "Why are you so weak?"

She said, "Because I haven't eaten in 38 days."

The son said, "That's terrible. Why haven't you eaten in 38 days?"

The mother answered, "Because, I didn't want my mouth to be full in case you should call."

"We have a passenger here at Gate 14 WHO DOES NOT KNOW WHO HE IS. If anyone can help him with his identity, please come to Gate 14."

Suddenly, an angry passenger pushed his way to the desk. He slapped his ticket on the counter and said, "I HAVE to be on this flight and it has to be FIRST CLASS."

The agent replied, "I'm sorry, sir. I'll be happy to try to help you, but I've got to help these folks first; and then I'm sure we'll be able to work something out."

The passenger was unimpressed.

He asked loudly, so that the passengers behind him could hear,

"DO YOU HAVE ANY IDEA WHO I AM?" Without hesitating, the agent smiled and grabbed her public address microphone.

"May I have your attention, please?" she began, her voice heard clearly throughout the terminal..

With the folks behind him in line laughing hysterically, the man glared at the United Airlines agent, gritted his teeth, and said, "Screw You!"

said: “He got where he is not by having a personality, but by having no personality,” Ed wrote back to Van Horne in his shortest reply on record: “Dear Miss Van Horne: You bitch. Sincerely, Ed Sullivan.”

At times, Ed Sullivan would change his mind and over-rule himself.

Initially, during his reign on The Ed Sullivan Show, he wished to stay clear of the hip-swiveling, naughty boy of rock ‘n’ roll, Elvis Presley, stating that he would never book him on his show. However, when the gyrating Memphis phenomenon became too big of a sensation to ignore, Sullivan caved.

He signed the King of Rock ‘n’ Roll in 1956 for three appearances! The exposure would explode on TV sets across America, skyrocketing The Ed Sullivan Show through the rafters.

But, there would be a heavy price to pay.

There was a tremendous backlash to rock ‘n’ roll, with some segments of 1950s America denouncing it as the “music of the devil,” and equating it “with corrupting the youth of America!”

After Elvis Presley’s second appearance on The Ed Sullivan Show, mobs of people in various cities demonstrated and burned effigies of Elvis Presley!

These angry crowds denounced the so-called “King of Rock and Roll” as a devil incarnate.

An evil role model that was leading American youth into decay and corruption.

The ensuing controversy motivated CBS censors to demand that Elvis Presley be filmed only from the waist-up during his upcoming third and final performance on The Ed Sullivan Show. On the evening of January 6, 1957, Elvis gyrated and shook and vibrated with excitement as he sang his heart out to a scream-

ing assemblage of wild, rabid fans who saw it all. However, the television-viewing audience that night, missed half the show – literally!

Home-viewers only saw 50% of the excitement, with CBS cameras airing “Elvis the Pelvis” at times, only from the waist up!

When Elvis was finished, Ed Sullivan would add closure and defend the 22year-old Memphis rock star against his vicious detractors. Ed had come to know Elvis on a personal level, and felt compelled to make amends for his friend. In front of a massive television viewing audience across America, he voiced: “I wanted to say to Elvis Presley and the country that this is a real decent, fine boy, and wherever you go, Elvis, we want to say we’ve never had a pleasanter experience on our show with a big name than we’ve had with you.”

Sullivan was not making a self-serving gesture to further ingratiate himself to America’s youth. He was in deadly earnest.

While it is true that he was a television pioneer, he was also not the ‘formula success story.’ He gave a new face to television by giving it an old one called vaudeville. Sullivan went to the gravesite of vaudeville and dared resurrect the age-old craft by serving up -- and giving renewed life -- to acts like plate spinning, contortionists, acrobats, magicians, comics, animal acts, ventriloquists, and the like.

In so doing, Sullivan – along with his dull, driftwood dry persona -- was the most unlikely of television success stories. His saving grace was that he never listened to the so-called expert naysayers and predictors-ofdoom. Quite the contrary, he became a superstar ringmaster of sorts, bringing international acts and cosmopolitan stars to homespun Americana.

Singer, TV host, and actor, Pat Boone would quip, “He had a peculiar – you might call it a genius – but there was a radar kinda thing and he knew what the audience wanted to see and hear. And he brought it to them.”

But even a powerful, well-established national icon such as Ed Sullivan often walked on thin ice. On some issues, he would not back down.

These moments comprise a most riveting side to a stubborn Sullivan, perhaps a throwback to his great Irish roots, where he knew not compromise, even at the expense of losing his own show.

Advertisers and sponsors are the lifeblood of any show, and they foot the bill. Sullivan would soon meet his ultimate challenge in a do-or-die standoff. In one pivotal situation, he continued to ignore and defy pressure to avoid interacting with black performers whenever they appeared on his show. Sullivan’s refusal to comply, incensed the show’s sponsors to finally ante-up their demand that Ed completely keep all AfricanAmerican entertainers from appearing on The Ed Sullivan Show.

Period.

According to brilliant biographer, Jerry Bowles, “Sullivan had to fend off his hard-won sponsor, Ford’s Lincoln dealers, after kissing Pearl Bailey on the cheek and daring to shake Nat King Cole’s hand.” (“Right Here On Our Stage Tonight: Ed Sullivan’s America,” Jerry Bowles, 2010.)

These were the advertisers which underwrote the show’s existence, yet their supreme powers were met eyeball-to-eyeball with Ed Sullivan, in a classic stare-down. It was the network sponsors who blinked first.

On one occasion, Sullivan dismantled the sponsors’ ultimatum in a most shocking episode that stunned

ment of early literacy skills that are important in preparing children for school. Each storytime program is planned and presented around the idea that parents are their child’s first and most important teacher. Storytimes facilitate bonding between parents and young children and provide a positive experience with books and play that often leads to a life-long love of reading and learning.

Library programs are free, open to the public, and sponsored by Friends of the Library.

the television industry from the ground up. According to author, Jerry Bowles, “Sullivan once had a Ford executive (physically) thrown out of the theatre when he suggested that Sullivan stop booking so many black acts.” (Bowles, Ibid)

In another scenario, Ed Sullivan reached the end of his rope. Bowles captured that explosive moment for posterity: “And a dealer in Cleveland told him, ‘We realize that you got to have niggers on your show. But do you have to put your arm around Bill ‘Bojangles’ Robinson at the end of his dance?’”

According to Bowles, “Sullivan had to be physically restrained from beating the man to a pulp.”

In a final rebellious act of tweaking the noses of his sponsors, Sullivan would later raise money to help pay for Robinson’s funeral.

Sullivan was far from being perfect, himself. No human being ever is.

Like all mortals, he had a good side and a bad one. But when he entered the lion’s den to face-down network powers that could have destroyed his career – he ‘took no prisoners.’

Compromise, perhaps. But, only to some degree. Taking a step backward to trod over deeply-entrenched principles was not a viable option for him.

Through all the years, the great show host retained his mantle of eccentricity. His odd behavior and antics were well-known by the phalanx of celebrities and entertainers who appeared on his legendary show.

Comedian, Phyllis Diller, was ultrashocked at one of her encounters with the celebrated impresario.

Sullivan often wanted performers to audition at 8 a.m. at his apartment.

And they did. Comedian Diller recalls one such bizarre experience.

The controversial Lilac Hills Ranch housing development has been in the news for more than 10 years - always surrounded by controversy. Supervisor Bill Horn abstained, after the state determined last year that he had a conflict of interest because he owns property nearby.

Supervisors would have preferred the project go through the normal planning process as this would have given the Supervisors more control to approve or deny the project. Several said that the voters are likely to be swamped with information contained in a 600 page inititative with a ballot statement that runs 75 words.

Between now and November voters can be expected to be inundated with advertsing touting the benefits of the development.

Queen Califia's Magical Circle is the only American sculpture garden and the last major international project created by French artist Niki de Saint Phalle (19302002). Inspired by California's mythic, historic, and cultural roots, the garden consists of nine large-scale sculptures, a circular "snake wall" and maze entryway, sculpturally integrated bench seating and native shrubs and trees planted within the interior plaza and along the outer perimeter. The garden bears the brilliant, unique mosaic ornamentation that is an unmistakable part of de Saint Phalle's

“As we get older we get a few more wrinkles than we would like . . . we get parts of our face, neck, hips, that begin to sag a bit.

That’s where we come in and restore your body to the point where you look and feel so much younger.”

Dr. Kadesky believes in plastic surgery so much he has submitted to several procedures. “I had my nose done when I was 35,” he says. “And I also had some filler material placed in some wrinkled areas on one side of my nose . . but left the other side untouched. That way I can demonstrate to my patients that this is how it looks with treatment . . . and this is how it looks without treatment. It also shows my patients that I certainly have faith in reconstructive surgery.”

I was enjoying the article until I came upon the paragraph on page 7 that stated: “Then, there’s the elderly AfricanAmerican whose sign has the Marine motto “semper fi.” I can assure you, as a 22 year veteran of the Marine Corps, that our motto has never been “semper fi”!

It has been, and remains, “Semper Fidelis.” In my time as a Marine, “semper fi” was used by one Marine to insult another and usually resulted in a fist fight.

Survivor of Sex Trafficking Speaks at Vista Library

Jaimee Johnson, founder of Sisters of the Streets (sistersofthestreets.org) and a sur-

vivor of sex trafficking, was the featured speaker at a recent panel discussion on “Human Trafficking In Our Own Backyard,” at the Vista Library. Other panelists were Kaye Van Nevel of Soroptimist International of Vista and North County Inland and Stephanie Gonzalez, a case manager at North County Lifeline who works with law enforcement to provide care to victims of human trafficking who have been rescued by the police. Kaye Van Nevel introduced the panel and spoke about Soroptimist International’s Stop Trafficking program.

The local Soroptimist club in Vista (soroptimistvista.org) has been holding an Awareness Event and Walk each January in downtown Vista for the past ten years, and with support from the United Methodist Church formed an Anti-Human Trafficking Collaborative, which meets every other month at the Church in Vista, hosting guest speakers involved in the fight against sex trafficking.

Jaimee Johnson spoke movingly about how she first became ensnared by her initial trafficker, the ways that he played upon her vulnerabilities to lure her into the life of a prostitute, her many failed attempts to leave that life, and finally how she was able to make the break for good. She now heads up an organization she formed to help fellow victims of trafficking called “Sisters of the Streets,” to help women recreate themselves and find life outside the sex industry, to re-enter society and recover their self-esteem.

Stephanie Gonzalez from North County Lifeline spoke about her organization’s “Project LIFE,” (Living In Freedom From Exploitation) which was started in 2011 when the North San Diego County Human Trafficking Task Force busted 38 gang members and rescued 35 victims of local trafficking in a sting operation. All 35 victims were students at local high schools. Project LIFE case workers are trained to work with rescued victims, providing support to them as they attempt to re-enter society. Most

Thank you and Semper Fidelis.

Michael J Schofield Escondido, CA.

Editor’s Note: First, thank you for your service. Secondly, what a fascinating Letter to the Editor! Thank you for the clarification.

I suspect, however, that it is a question of semantics. Possibly in written form it should be Semper Fidelis. I have about a battalion of Marines who are friends of mine and they quite often will greet each other with a fist bump and “Semper Fi.” I spent two years in S. Vietnam, reporting as a war correspondent, often with Marine units. The term “semper fie” was frequently used. In casual, informal converasation, I suspect “semper fi” is acceptable; in written, formal form, it should be written as “Semper Fidelis.” But, I could be wrong.

relief at hearing about the letter.

“Now the mysery is solved,” he said. “I had two Dereks, both of whom lived in Escondido. I called Derek repeatedly and got no answer but left messages on voice mail.

Then, I got a call from Derek and he said, ‘Ken, we don’t have an appointment Saturday.’ I had been trying to call back the wrong Derek.

I’ll get in touch with Mr. Tatum and we’ll make things right.”

It is my understanding that Ken has since made contact with the correct Derek (Tatum) and that all is well.

San Diego's Agriculture: Food for the World

This region is a major contributor to California’s longstanding status as the nation’s leading agricultural state. Locally grown crops including citrus, avocados, strawberries, olives, grapes and cut flowers have put San Diego in the top tier of the nation’s agricultural counties.

California’s 76,400 farms produce over one-third of the country’s vegetables and twothirds of its fruits and nuts, generating approximately $54 billion in revenue. That’s 13 percent of total U.S. agricultural production.

Lyle. I must congratulate you and your advertising department on a job well done. Your vendors must be making thousands.

Love The Paper.

She has worked with the top funeral homes throughout San Diego County for over 10 years and has developed a reputation for being at the top of her class.

When grief visits our home we want only the best to help us get through that difficult time.

Jonah and the Whale

Rick Bova Escondido

She is widely respected within the funeral industry for her knowledge of the profession, for her professional manner of working with both funeral directors and/or families, as needed.

The Paper can and does accept Obituaries and Memorials presently but Griffiths is working up a special section of The Paper that will address a large portion of San Diego County and serve a wide variety of funeral homes, cremation services, and cemeteries.

I’d be interested in other Marine’s views on this. Thanks for an interesting Letter to the Editor. We’ll see what your colleagues have to say.

One of my pet peeve is when people argue about things that they know nothing about. In the Daily chuckles, there was a cute story about a little girl arguing with her teacher on if Jonah could have been swallowed by a whale when a whale's throat is too small to swallow a human whole. The Bible doesn't say Jonah was swallowed by a whale. It says he was swallowed by a great fish.

She will help families write the documents or she will assist them in writing their own. With years of experience she knows how to work with families during times of grief.

San Diego County agriculture covers 268,000 acres, with over 37 commodities valued at more than $1 million. The county contains 5,732 farms, more than any other county in the United States. Even though 68% of our farms range from one to nine acres, our annual production is valued at over $1.8 billion, making San Diego

the 20th largest agricultural county in the United States. As many of you know, the heart of San Diego County agriculture is right here, in the 75th Assembly District.

In 2014, the San Diego County Farm Bureau celebrated its centennial anniversary. But the history of farming goes back even further when dairy farming, citrus groves and cattle ranches covered most of our region, and berries were harvested on ocean view coastal farms.

This year I was proud to recognize Burnett “Tig” Wohlford, a descendant of one of those pioneering farming families, with an Assembly Resolution recognizing him as San Diego County Farm Bureau’s Farmer of the Year. I’m sure Tig would agree that there is a whole lot of farming going on in the 75th Assembly District.

The Ed Sullivan Show Cont. from Page 3

“Ed comes out of his bedroom in his bath robe, at first barefoot, then with slippers, with his dog – a black poodle – and while I’m doing what I thought was a very funny routine, his dog is nibbling on my toes and I’m going nuts! I can’t concentrate! It was a disaster!” Diller would never forget the surreal episode, “And Ed, it’s his first cup of coffee and he’s coughing, and groaning, and clearing the phlegm from his throat!”

Nevertheless, the famed comedian saw the lighter side and finished with a slice of humor, followed by her loud, trademark laugh which resembles a crow’s cackle: “He probably just liked my looks. And remember, that was my old face!”

That Ed Sullivan had a quick temper and a long memory that held fast to grudges was a well-known fact. As Ed once relented, “I’m a pop-off. I flare up, then I go around apologizing.”

But, Ed was more than just a popoff. He could be the insidious gremlin that could sabotage an act on his own show. And he did. More than once.

In 1958 Buddy Holly and the Crickets were booked for their second appearance on The Ed Sullivan Show. The conservative Sullivan thought Holly’s hit song, “Oh, Boy!” to be too raucous and over-the-top for his audience. Ed’s suggestion to sing a substitute song was rejected outright by the Lubbock, Texas, rock star. An annoyed Sullivan retaliated by cutting Holly’s scheduled song numbers from two to only one.

Then, Ed Sullivan mispronounced Buddy Holly’s name on the air -- this time, on purpose -- during the introduction. A little known fact that has come to light is an added piece of hidden drama behind the scenes at the time -- a grudgeful Ed secretly saw to it that Buddy Holly’s guitar amplifier was turned off!

Nevertheless, Buddy Holly and the Crickets were invited back by Sullivan, himself, which only further antagonized and angered Holly, “He (Sullivan) doesn’t have enough money to get us back!”

That Ed Sullivan was capable of such mischievous and revengeful acts only added to his lore and legend. Such episodes neither detracted nor diminished his popularity with the public.

If anything, such notoriety kept him a hot topic of discussion around the water coolers.

Another celebrated incident happened with popular Jewish standup comedian, Jackie Mason. When The Ed Sullivan Show was interrupted due to President Lyndon Johnson’s speech to the nation in October of 1964. Sullivan had to curtail Jackie Mason’s comedy turn to only two minutes. The offstage distraction of Ed continually holding two fingers to remind Mason of his two-minute time limit only served to distract the live studio audience (Sullivan was onstage but off camera). The audience distraction caused most of the comic’s jokes to go ‘south,’ into the

tank. A flustered and angered Mason finally cried on the air, “I’m getting fingers here!” and then made his own frantic gesture to Sullivan saying, “Here’s a finger to you!” at the end of his routine. Videotapes of the incident are unclear if Jackie Mason truly gave an obscene gesture to Ed. Studio audience members seem divided on the issue, as well. Mason, himself, denied giving such an obscene retaliation at all. Only a wild open-hand gesture with fingers extended.

Historically Speaking

In September of 1965, Sullivan recanted and had Mason back on a surprise grand reunion telecast.

The Majority of Voters Don’t Always Win

Regardless, Sullivan was not amused.

Jackie Mason was banned from The Ed Sullivan Show.

Nevertheless, the damage had already been done by negative publicity which haunted the struggling comedian. Mason’s comedic career suffered intensely after that on-air debacle. The comic’s career income was decimated by 50 percent! Only until Jackie Mason resurrected his career on Broadway, in 1986, was his popularity back in full swing.

As all good things must come to an end, so it was with The Ed Sullivan Show. Its success could not go on forever. Broadcast for 23 years from 1948 to 1971, it set a record as the longest-running variety show in American broadcast history.

Prominent television critic, David Hinckley, said it best: “It was, by almost any measure, the last great TV show. It’s one of our fondest, dearest pop culture memories.”

Sullivan’s awkward gait and forgetfulness on stage became his legendary trademark. He both enjoyed poking fun at such shortcomings and encouraged others to join in, most notably impressionists like Rich Little, John Byner, Frank Gorshin, and especially, Will Jordan. Jordan was Sullivan’s unabashed favorite as he not only sounded like Ed, but he bore a startling resemblance as well!

That Ed Sullivan’s clumsy mistakes and forgetfulness on stage were moments of gleeful remembrance that further endeared him to his audience, something strange and ugly lurked in the shadows in his later years. Something wicked, and unforgiving, was waiting, patiently, to pounce upon him.

In his later years, it was no longer humorous shtick that Ed would forget or mispronounce someone’s name. He soon forgot familiar faces, as well. But, this time, he was trying hard not to falter. It would now become a life-or-death struggle.

Something mysterious was slowly seizing hold of him. His celebrity of forgetfulness on stage and mispronouncing names would be tragically different, now. This was no longer a game to toy with.

Slowly, with advancing old age, Ed Sullivan would experience the tragic

The Ed Sullivan Show Cont. on Page 8

For those of you thinking our Presidential election is as simple as “majority wins,” you haven’t gone to class to learn about the Electoral College. Four times in the history of the United States, a President has been elected without getting a majority of the popular vote, thanks to the Electoral College.

The Electoral College is not a simple procedure and down through the years critics have attempted to do away with the system. The Electoral College was set up by the founders as a way of ensuring that “qualified” candidates would run and win. It was thought there were too many uneducated or uninformed citizens who wouldn’t or couldn’t choose well, or at least the way the politicians thought they should. The Electoral system is designed so it could override the will of the people – and it has.

Here’s how it works: It's General Election day. You make a selection at your polling place and with your "I voted" sticker, step into the November air, satisfied you've made your wishes known. But what if your vote, the one you thought you cast for a Presidential candidate, was actually used to elect someone whose name you don't even know -- who would cast a Presidential vote on your behalf ?

This may sound bizarre, but this is exactly what takes place during a U.S. Presidential election. By voting for a Republican or Democratic Presidential candidate, for example, you are really voting for your party’s member of the Electoral College, who is expected -- but not required - to vote along party lines to reflect your wishes several weeks after the General Election.

California, the most populated state, has 55 Electoral Votes. In some states, the electors' names are printed on the ballots directly under the presidential candidates' names or grouped by party somewhere else on the ballot. In other states, the names of electoral college nominees are not even listed on the ballot.

In the first few elections, Presidents would be chosen by only the Electoral College. Then in 1804, the 12th Amendment to the Constitution was written and clarified the situation – somewhat.

Below are four examples of Presidents being elected by using the Electoral College system. According to the 12th Constitutional Amendment, if there is a stalemate, the House of Representatives votes for a winner. But not always, as you’ll see below:

No. 1 – In 1800, Thomas Jefferson tied with Aaron Burr (73 Electoral votes each). It was left to the House of Representatives to elect the new President. Out of hatred for Burr, Alexander Hamilton persuaded enough House members to elect Jefferson -- by one vote. (Note: in those early days, the second-place candidate became vice president, which Burr assumed – reluctantly) Burr got even with Hamilton on July 11, 1804 in Weehawken, N.J., in the infamous duel.

No. 2 – John Quincy Adams was the son of our second President and a founding father, John Adams. In 1824, he was in a five-man Presidential race. Andrew Jackson, John C. Calhoun, William H. Crawford, and Henry Clay were his opponents. Jackson won both the pluralities and the Electoral votes, but NOT a majority. It was thrown into the House and Adams emerged the winner, even though he had garnered less than one-third the popular vote.

No. 3 – Benjamin Harrison defeated incumbent President Grover Cleveland in the election of 1888.

Harrison received 90,000 votes fewer than Cleveland, but he carried the Electoral College 233 to 168, thus winning the White House.

No. 4 – George W. Bush won the presidency in 2000 by defeating Al Gore, who had beaten Bush by 543,895 popular votes. Bush won 29 states, thus defeating Gore with the Electoral College 271 to 266.

These examples may sound bizarre, but it’s exactly what took place during four U.S. Presidential elections.

When you vote for a Presidential and Vice-Presidential candidate on the ballot, you are really voting for the electors of the political party by which they were nominated.

After more than 230 years, the populace of the U.S. now may be ready and smart enough to elect a President on our own without the help of the Electoral College. But, then again, maybe not.

Remember, your party’s Electoral member isn’t required to vote the way you’ve voted – but, in most cases they do.

The Ed Sullivan Show Cont. from Page 7

embrace of increasing dementia.

In a 2012 radio interview, 38 years after his death, Joan Rivers disclosed that Ed Sullivan had been suffering from Alzheimer’s disease toward the end of his life. And in a 1990 press conference, Paul McCartney, recalled a meeting with Ed Sullivan in the 1970s. It was a strange encounter.

McCartney kept trying to remind Ed that he was one of the Beatles. But, sadly, the elderly Irishman had no clue as to who the man was standing before him. Nor did he seem to recall any such group known as The Beatles. Sullivan, in the grip of Alzheimer’s, could only smile at McCartney’s persistent efforts to jog his memory.

He knew not McCartney, nor did he recall the Beatles, the very group he showcased ‘live’ to the New World for the very first time.

It was the saddest reunion between the two inexorable forces who changed the world they both lived in.

Despite Paul McCartney’s heartwrenching urgings, the great Ed Sullivan – who once vocalized the greatest introductions in the history of entertainment – fell silent. He could not remember Paul McCartney, whom he once hugged as a son.

Still smiling and nodding, Ed merely shook Paul’s hand. And then he slowly turned. And left.

In early September of 1974, X-rays revealed that Sullivan had advanced esophageal cancer. Doctors gave him very little time to live. Due to his dementia and increasing forgetfulness, the family decided to keep the deadly diagnosis from him.

Considering his Alzheimer’s condition, it was the most merciful and practical decision. Five weeks later, on October 13, 1974, at New York’s Lenox Hill Hospital, Ed Sullivan made his exit from this world, at age 73.

By all accounts, Ed Sullivan was never supposed to be any measure of success at what he did. For pundits of his era, in the place of talent, they saw only a barren wasteland. Even in his prime, they said he was decrepit in speech, moved zombie-like, and stumbled over simple words in the worst of ways. He just didn’t fit the mold, and the experts misjudged him time and again, never truly seeing his cloaked power and love-affair with the American people.

Analysts impugned him without mercy, signaling his early demise. It never came.

His mistakes made people laugh out loud, and only elevated him in popularity. Once, when talking to Connie Francis on stage he asked, “Tell me, Connie, is your mother still dead?” And when The Rolling Stones’ manager requested a contract for the English rock group to make a second appearance on his show, Ed replied, “Before even discussing the possibility of a contract, I would like to learn from you, whether

your young men have reformed in the matter of dress and shampoo?”

Sometimes in human history, the common people see things that the wise are blind to. Despite such mishaps, a nation of 50-million viewers each week watched The Ed Sullivan Show, not only for the variety acts – but, because Sullivan had become an endeared member of their families. A most welcomed guest, every Sunday evening.

He was no phony, no Hollywood pretty boy illusion – he was America’s ‘average Joe’ – mistakes and all -- which they all could strongly identify and connect with on a grassroots level.

The author, Friederich Gomez

And they did. He became, arguably, the most beloved variety show M.C. in the annals of broadcasting history.

According to the experts of his era – he never should have happened.

A little Irish boy, born in Harlem, New York, and who only stood 5’ 7” in his adult years, grew up to become a veritable giant in the fiercest combat arena of all: entertainment.

Comedian Alan King said, “Ed does nothing, but he does it better than anyone else in television.”

Alan King almost had it right. But, if you call charming countless millions of people ‘nothing’ – then yes, Sullivan did, indeed, do it better than anyone else.

and then just cook ‘em up!

The ribs are kinda expensive, around $11 to 12 a lb. but, trust me, they are worth it. You’ll be the hit of the party if you serve these up. (For cooking tips, stop in at Tip Top Meats and ask for Steve Reid. He’ll interrupt his meat carving for a few minutes to give you some pointers.

Suffice it too say . . . I have never had such delicious ribs as the Maui Ribs prepared by Steve!)

••••• Speaking of food, which I just was, we sauntered into the Jalapeno Grill and Cantina in Escondido on Friday night and it was like old home week!

We bumped into great pal and former Escondido Mayor, Lori Holt Pfeiler and her hubby, as well as Tina Pope, one of the movers and shakers with Palomar Health, and her husband. Had not seen either in months, if not years. Great to see them both.

As a bonus we bumped into Diane Snow Ramirez, another long time pal and former banker. Had lost touch with her and had tried to track her down to no avail and Poof! Here she is at Jalapeno Grill, along with her beautiful pup.

After enjoyable chats we went inside.

I ordered Prime Rib (which is what made Ray Alto famous) and it was the best prime rib I had ever eaten.

My companion had Sirloin Steak and she, too, agreed the meal was superb.

Meals are always great at Jalapeno.

Busy as he was, Ray even had time to

stop by the table and visit. A great night out!

Still on the subject of food, we stopped at Diego’s Place, in the industrial section of Escondido at 1104 Industrial Avenue, (760.489.8227).

It’s owned by Vanessa Estrada and the restaurant is named after her son, Diego.

I had read about this on Facebook, recalled that we deliver The Paper there, so decided to try it out.

Delish! We ordered two soft shell steak tacos and a sugar free lemonade. $7! Not bad on price. And the food was promptly served and tasty.

I’m going back and check out their breakfast menu. They are open Monday through Friday from 6am till 4pm. Spotlessly clean, friendly service, and a spacious dining area.

They tend toward a Mexican oriented menu but if you want eggs n’ bacon, I reckon they can rustle it up for you.

I like friendly places. This is one. I like places that serve good food promptly and with a smile. This is one. Check ‘em out. I think you’ll likely thank me for the recommendation.

••••• It’s been a busy but enjoyable week here at the old stomping grounds.

We’ll be out and about again this coming week so be on your best behavior. You just never know when the Man About Town may be sitting next to you!

Most of the City of Escondido used to be farm land, specifically citrus groves. There are still active groves around the perimeter of the City.

Remnants of groves can be found in neighborhoods and parks. If you purchased a home with a few citrus trees on the property, or planted new ones, you will want to inspect your trees for a dangerous disease.

A pest called the Asian citrus psyllid feeds on new citrus leaves and is a carrier for a bacterial disease called Huanglongbing (spell checker does not approve of this word). This disease has no cure and has devastated citrus crops in Florida. Psyllids are found in our region and the bacteria have been found in groves north of Los Angles and south of Ensenada.

San Diego area commercial groves have not been infected but we should

all help be vigilant about inspecting trees in our own yards.

Inspect your citrus trees by looking under the newest growth leaves for phyllids (size of an aphid). If the leaves are spotted or discolored, you need to call the Department of Food and Agriculture for advice at 1-800491-1899. Learn more about this citrus disease www.CaliforniaCitrusThreat.org

Maggie loves everyone she meets and never (we mean NEVER) stops wagging her tail. True to her breed, she just wants to be everyone's best friend and snuggle all day, every day.

Pastor Hal Seed, New Song Community Church, Oceanside Science vs Faith

Over the past ten year, my book, The God Questions, has helped enough people (350,000 copies worth) that the publisher asked me to release a revised edition. It came out this month. One of the great God Questions is, “Which is right: creation or evolution?” In this newly-released version, I spent 6 chapters walking through the options. The creation vs. evolution debate centers on whether we live in a finite universe, or an infinite one. Here’s an excerpt:

What kind of a beginning did our universe have? Cosmologists believe that all the matter in the universe came from one infinitely dense, hot ball. In 1949, Fred Hoyle described this hot beginning on a BBC radio program as “The Big Bang.” Hoyle and the majority of scientists at the time believed in the “Steady State” theory.

Evidence continues to mount that

Two Bell Laboratory scientists named Arno Penzias and Robert Wilson spent a year trying to quiet the background noise they were hearing coming from the huge Bell antenna set up in Holmdel, New Jersey.

The two tried everything they could think of to create a clear signal. In desperation, they phoned Princeton University to see if the researchers there might be able to help them diagnose their problem.

In a twist of fate, the lead researcher, Robert Dicke, had been working to find a phenomenon called “cosmic background radiation.” Dr. Dicke knew immediately what the Bell Lab workers had found. “Well boys, we’ve just been scooped,” he remarked after he hung up the phone.

Penzias and Wilson received the Nobel Prize in 1978. Their discovery of cosmic microwave background radiation proved decisively that we live in a finite universe.

Back in the 1960s, enlightened pedagogs who created the syllabi for college and university liberal arts curricula deemed it important to include a healthy dose of “neo-classical literature” to stimulate (or befog) our growing minds. For the most part this literary genre was quite enjoyable with “coming of age gems” like “Catcher in the Rye,” “Goodbye Columbus” and “To Kill a Mockingbird.” But quietly and innocently resting among Salinger, Roth and Harper Lees was James Joyce and “Ulysses.” Depending on your point of view “Ulysses” is either a 700 page literary classic or a monumentally boring, profane and unintelligible collection of drivel.

I began my acquaintance with

“Ulysses” at Connie’s Tavern where like-minded “intellectuals” gathered to drink beer and share our enlightenment. After an hour of reading and discussing “Ulysses” (and drinking) we became suspicious that we might be the victims of some sophisticated literary prank foisted upon us by our “20th Century Literature” professor.

To test our suspicion I was tasked with making a phone call to a postgraduate friend with unimpeachable literary judgment. I called from the pay phone in the bar and read to him one entire, particularly inscrutable page from Ulysses. He listened and when I finished he sighed deeply and said, “that’s pure genius, it sounds like James Joyce.” The life lesson that I took back to the table at Connie’s Tavern that night was that there are creations in literature and art that are appreciated as masterpieces by some and completely beyond comprehension to others.

had made mention of his first “encounter” with a computer virus that was hidden in a bilingual English-(fill-in-the-blank)English website, approximately ten to fifteen years ago, his father mentioned your reply regarding it. Were my young friend and I anyone else, we would almost swear in, in a court of law in this country , that you were coming off as “enlightened defenders” in shining armor dashing to the rescue of the father from the “slovening, salivating dummy who doesn’t even know what he is talking about.

Simply put, it was my young friend’s father who instigated this circular joust. He wanted his son to translate a “pseudo-auto-bio” of a fictional character that the father had created from English into Latin… and it was at a time when Google’s translator

“toolbar” did not have Latin in its repertoire! Is this how you display your “knowledge” of computer technology?

You can go ahead and accuse me of authorizing these “poison pen letters” (allegedly, so called) all you want. But for you to display the personal knowledge of someone else as your own is worse than any poison pen letter that even 5-year-olds could write.

Please note: I do not say this with any malice toward you. I merely point out that if my young friend is to be browbeaten into politeness, then the same ought to apply to the other side of the coin.

A Worried Citizen.

Genius or drivel? We have an open mind.

Several times in each of the past dozen years, a mysterious anonymous writer has slipped a single page “stream of consciousness” document through our mail slot in the dead of night. Each has a common theme darkly hinting at some forgotten grievous injury inflicted by one of us. As with “Ulysses,” we don’t comprehend the message but suspect it might be unappreciated genius?
