Loon: The Lords of the 4th Dimension have produced the ghost of someone named Phil Silvers for this weeks 3 Question Interview. Mr. Silvers, were you a pirate?
Ghost of Silvers: Whadda ya mean a pirate? Where did they get this guy?
Loon: I was informed that you were a top banana. I wondered if that was some sort of pirate. What else could it possibly be?
Ghost of Silvers (grabs Loon by back of neck, pulls him forward): Come closer, pal. Try to focus (slaps Loon on cheek). Focus (slap). Focus (slap). You got it now? (Loon nods.) Then forget it (slap).

like rattlesnakes and barkeeps and a random drunken king

on the prospect of going shopping for a brand new pair of shoes
happy birthday, charles

Loon: What a privilege it is to welcome Thomas Hardy to this week’s Celebrity Ghost 3 Question Interview. I can’t help but ask if you were related to Stan Laurel. Were you related to Stan Laurel?
Hardy’s ghost: Not in the least. Why don’t you ask me something sensible?
Loon: Too bad about Laurel. I am told you made up stories about somebody named Tess and somebody named Jude. Wouldn’t Penny and Alan have been better name choices?
Hardy’s ghost: Possibly.
Loon: Finally, did you ever attend a 3 Ring Circus?
Hardy’s ghost: Day in and day out for the duration of my existence.
Loon: Thank you and good-bye.
(Loon inexplicably pirouettes from the room. Hardy’s ghost flutters a ghostly tie and fades.)
