I find Brokieisms in the most unlikely places. Last night I was reading The Adventures of Sherlock Holmes, volume I, by Sir Arthur Conan Doyle, and on page 653, Sherlock is analyzing some handwriting on a note written by two hands, and remarks on the "bold, strong hand of the one, and the other rather broken-backed..."!
Then, this morning, I was working out while listening to NPR's "Wait, Wait Don't Tell Me" (August 7 edition) on my ipod. There was a hilarious exchange about the proposed plan to do a biopic of Justin Beiber, who is all of 16 years old, and who the director might be. They speculated how Chris Nolan, Clint Eastwood, James Cameron, Kathryn Bigelow and other directors might approach the daunting project, and then played a song about catching "Beiber fever", hehe!
WWDTM was pretty funny, also with a segment on Warren Buffett and Bill Gates personally calling their fellow billionaires to ask them to pledge to donate some of their billions to charity. Peter Seigel referred to them as Warren Gates, and the panel responded with excitement about a Warren + Bill marriage, pleased that they didn't waste any time after the overturn of Prop 8!!
