Of Beers and Girls

25 Feb

A bar and book review by a writer at the San Francisco weekly has this to say about Betty White’s autobiography, In Person:

“I wish I could say that White’s book was good (argh, there’s the critic in me again), but it was pretty damn bad. I wanted to learn about her early days, about her marriage to the guy from Password, inside scoopage about the Golden Girls, and more about her love of needlework. Instead I got somewhat shallow musings on life. There was one good part, which I ripped through during my paella. She describes the Pictionary parties she and her husband would go to at Carol Burnett’s house. They would set up a big board and separate into two teams. Her teammates included James Stewart, Anne Bancroft, Mel Brooks, Harvey Korman, Rock Hudson, and George Burns. Wow.”

Amusing.
