...lugubrious Dirksen fretted, "can wear a fancy dress about three times and then he [Agnew] has got to whip down there and have another made. That's $700 or $800." There was quite a bit of Dirksen hyperbole in that, and Judy Agnew was quick to set the record straight. "The most expensive gown I own is my inaugural ball gown," the Second Lady protested. "That cost under $500, and I don't expect to pay that much again for a long time. I wear my clothes over and over again...

They bounce back as well as any club I've ever seen...

Anyone who remembers Arlo Guthrie's rambling, hilarious talking-blues record of a couple of seasons back will probably be surprised by this movie version. All the favorite, funny episodes are still there: the garbage dumping after Thanksgiving dinner, the cops investigating "the scene of the crime" and taking "twenty-seven 8-by-10, colored glossy photographs with circles and arrows," and the Army induction with its "injections, inspections, detections, neglections."
