    I first saw it as an episode of the TV series “ABC Stage ’67.” I still get a lump in my throat when I think about experiencing it for the first time.

    Also : “Stage ’67” only lasted a single season. One the great losses for television programming. Without having to look them up, I still have vivid memories of several of the episodes of what was an anthology of a wide array of experimental programs.

    “Where It’s At” comedy/variety hosted by Dick Cavett.“Evening Primrose” which was an early Steven Sondheim musical.“Rogers and Hart Today” featuring performances of their work by Bobby Darin, Petula Clark, The Mamas and the Papas, The Supremes, and more.“The Human Voice” was a one-woman show starring Inrrid Bergman show in which we only hear one half of a telephone conversation in which the she figures out that her husband is with another woman.“The People Trap” a star-studded science fiction about an over-populated future earth. [Imagine an athletic Pearl Bailey in an all-black suit with cape and heels, threatening the hero with a switch-blade.]

    From one of my favorite Christmas stories, the poignant and beautiful “A Christmas Memory” by Truman Capote….

    “Oh my,” she exclaims, her breath smoking the windowpane, “it’s fruitcake weather!” The person to whom she is speaking is myself. I am seven; she is sixty-something, We are cousins, very distant ones, and we have lived together—well, as long as I can remember.

    A vulture at the airport. He’s decided to fly South for the winter but isn’t particularly fond of winging over long distances. So he decides to pay for a plane ticket. The ticket agent is a little taken aback but maintains his customer service mode. “I see you have a couple of dead armadillos. Would you like to check them as baggage?” “No thank you,” says the vulture. “They’re carrion.”
