Show Description

The Western world is rapidly declining. Just heard the Oscar nominations as further evidence. Shep thinks the "Godfather" movies are boring. Shep says he was doing a TV show 5 nights a week and it had a commercial with a truck blowing its horn. He did the commercial every nightin his jolly way. He says, one day, he was driving down U.S.41 almost into Kentucky when he was blown by an air horn from a passing truck.He couldn't do the commercials the same way, and the sponsors becaame concerned that he was too serious. One day they came to visit him and brought him a gift - his very own deluxe Air Horn.

"Can you imagine 4,000 years passing, and you're not even a memory?
Think about it, friends. It's not just a possibility. It is a certainty." - Jean Shepherd - 1975
