Allrighty!
Politician: Spring of 1972, it's a Saturday on the Quad at the University of Illinois and they're setting up for some sort of political rally. I head into the men's room at the Student Union. In the middle of doing my business, I inadvertently make eye contact with the older gent two urinals over. Without interrupting his own business, he flings out his right hand and says, "Hi! Ed Muskie! Can I count on your vote?"
Sports: I'm engineering an interview session with Kareem Abdul Jabbar and Magic Johnson. We're waiting for the producer, and the the two of them start yakking about a swanky Beverly Hills party they had both been at the previous weekend, thrown by some Saudi prince or someone. Kareem says, "You ever notice that no matter how rich someone is, they still can't clean the top of their fridge?"
