I used to work with a comic named Roger Rose who pointed out it said something about him that he was someone who got sympathy calls when one of the three stooges died. I sort of feel the same way about the fact that I got two phone calls last night to alert me to the fact that Danny Bonaduce was on TV boxing Barry Williams (Danny Partridge versus Greg Brady). This broadcast also included Todd Bridges versus Vanilla Ice and Tanya Harding versus Paula Jones (a late substitute for Amy Fisher). I know they say boxing can cause brain damage, but I thought that was a warning for the participants, not the spectators! Naturally I watched from beginning to end, but hey, I grew up in the seventies, so all of my most vulnerable brain cells have probably already been eradicated.
