I got a call on my cell phone twice today from Katie Couric. Again. The woman just won’t leave me alone. It seems that Mike Wallace is sick and CBS wants her to interview me.
Mike Wallace is still alive? Who knew?
So, we’re talking about interview topics and Obama and how tiring it gets on the campaign trail and suddenly, Katie asks me, “Do you pop vitamins? Do you mainline coffee?”
Sure. Like I’m going to answer that and tell her for all the world to know what it is I do to keep going. I say, “Katie, I take vitamins. I drink tea, not coffee anymore.” She gets all whiny and pouty on the phone and tells me I must be hiding something, “Where do you get the stamina?”
Sometimes it’s just easier to make things up. “Well, Katie,” I said, “My two secrets to staying healthy– wash your hands all the time. And hot peppers. I eat a lot of hot peppers.”
I just made that up. The wags at CBS will believe anything. Just ask Dan Rather.
