I once saw an old segment from the Tonight Show. The guests were Dean Martin, Bob Hope, and George somebody. I distinctly remember his first name being George. He had a line I want to quote, but I also want to give credit where it's due.
At one point during the interview he says, "Did you ever get the feeling that the world is a tuxedo and you're a pair of brown shoes?" Anyone remember this? IIRC, I saw this on a video tape of Johnny Carson's favorite moments that was released after he retired. I'm hoping someone has the tape and will recognize this.
