Jack’s Winning Words 12/4/08
“Having a dream is what keeps you alive. Overcoming the challenges makes life worth living.”
(Mary Tyler Moore) MTM has had her share of challenges…failures in show biz…a couple of failed marriages…the tragic death of her son…living as a diabetic…and others. But she has persevered and comes across to her many fans as, Perky Mary, even though Lou Grant once said, “I hate perky!” Evidently there’s something good about having a dream. ;-) Jack


FROM MOLINER C.F.: Did you know MTM was Sam Spade's secretary's phone voice? That's, of course, before she married Dick Petry. REPLY: No, I didn't lnow that. I always liked Perky Mary. Rob Petrie

Mary Tyler Moore in that old sitcom with Dick Van Dyke (Rob) was also hilarious. The time when they brought their baby home and then got the idea that it was the wrong baby--made telephone calls and so forth to the other couple with the same name and when they all came together discovered the other couple was black so they had the right baby after all. What a riot. She always seems so wholesome. How come all these reality TV shows can't seem to seem wholesome like these old sitcoms?
