Show Description
This evening will be particularly irritating. . . Tonight he salutes his favorite literary elegances. . . Shep reads items from the 1974 Neiman-Marcus Christmas catalog - pgs 17 and 46
[ Courtesy: David Goldin - 04-27-2024 ] The program features the music of Tchaikovsky. A gift suggestion from Neiman-Marcus: "The Mouse N Bar M Ranch." A nickel plated brass penguin. Shep hums along with the "Capriccio Italien" (it's not much fun to listen to). Elegance is difficult to define.
