... you are shocked to discover that Maury Povich is 74 years old.
I work from home, which means I put the local news on in the afternoon -- and if I'm not fast enough, occasionally I get to see a bit of Maury. From the little I've seen, about 80% of the time he's providing paternity proving services to trailer folk and urban 'hoods everywhere (okay, okay -- I know I'm perpetuating a stereotype -- but some stereotypes begin as a kernel of truth -- and, besides, it's nice to know that "who's your daddy" storylines exist outside of soap operas) ... but 74? Really? Are so many of my generation's "national treasures" so close to expiration? [Note -- I do wish you many more years, Maury, contrary to the way that might sound.]
