oz@rlgvax.UUCP (THE GREAT AND POWERFUL OZ) (09/22/83)
Come and listen to a story 'bout a man named Jed,
a poor mountaineer, bearly kept his family fed.
And then one day, he was shooting at some food,
when up from the ground came a bubbleing crud.
(SPOKEN: Oil, that is, black gold, texas tea)
Well the first thing you know, Old Jed's a millionaire.
The kin folk said, "Jed, move away from there."
Said "California is where you 'oughta be."
So they loaded up the truck and they moved to Beverly
(SPOKEN: Hills that is, swimming pools, movie stars)
(wild banjo music)
(SPOKEN: Brought to you by kellogs of Battle Creek)
No mention of this unusal show? No comments on Miss Hathoway? Mr.
Drysdale? Granny, Jethro and whatever her name was? This was a VERY
popular show, not in my house, but still popular. Any comments?

The Ottoman Empire is not dead (Diplomacy freaks will understand)
The infamous Oz has blown it with the BH sponsor lyrics:
"<unremembered> by your sponsor of the week,
the best to you each morning, Kellogg's of Battle Creek.
K-E-double-L O-double-good, Kellogg's best {to,for} you!"
And of course, some time earlier (but you will never see on reruns)
"<unremembered>
<more unremembered> Winston cigarettes.
Winston tastes good, like a cigarette should."
You remember NOW, don't you, Oz?
In one of my nice moods,
