Ohh Nooo!
Kathleen woke me up this morning with laughter. She was reading about Louisiana Senator Mary Landrieu, who gave a speech in the Senate yesterday with a dash of Cajun spice.
The senator went on to describe how the creator of Mr. Bill, the clay figurine whose cry of "Ohh noooo!" was long a staple of "Saturday Night Live," had used the character in public service announcements to warn southern Louisianians of the dangers they would face in an extraordinary storm.
"How can it be," she asked, "that Mr. Bill was better informed than Mr. Bush?"

Ah, Mary Landrieu. Thank you for making me smile.

"The Indianapolis Academy of the French Accent" was on Best of NLRH February 9, 1974 / #13, and appears to be available from Flashback Records, on their CD# R2 79814, NATIONAL LAMPOON RADIO HOUR, Best Moments. Thanks again for reminding me.
