...conceits is that anyone who has been asleep for two centuries will probably have to grow up all over again. This gives Allen an opportunity to do a zany turn as a toddler set loose in the operating room where he has been revived. Later, he discovers that all the servants in his cowardly new world are robots (the ones assigned to homosexuals even lisp). To escape from the security police (whose ray gun, incidentally, is always blowing up on them, the spirit of the CIA being immortal), he disguises himself as one of the robots. This bit becomes especially...
...Maharaj Ji's mother and three older brothers literally worship him, kissing his "lotus feet" whenever they are in his presence. To them as to his other followers, he is the "Perfect Master" and "Lord of the Universe." By their testimony, the Maharaj Ji began, while still a toddler, to deliver inspired satsangs (sermons)-and to amaze the devotees of his father (then the Perfect Master) by awakening them in the morning with the exhortation, "Get up, get up. Do meditation! If you don't, I will beat you with a stick...

For all his attention to aging veterans, Allen wisely held on to Running Back Larry Brown, a Redskin holdover who in size (5 ft. 11 in., 195 Ibs.) and years (25) is a comparative toddler.

If Allen's over-the-hill gang does make it to that post-season promised...
...Cavett seems to have been destined to become the host with the mots. In Gibbon, Neb., and later in Lincoln, he was reared on words. His father Alva, who was then a high school English-lit teacher, read Shakespeare to his son when he was a toddler. By the time he was four, Dick was reciting A.A. Milne. He was also developing a remarkably resonant and deep voice, and that, coupled with the fact that he was exceedingly short (he is now a touch under 5 ft. 7 in.) made him feel something like a freak...
...chat a lot, but it is much like babies' babble, unfinished, noncom-municative. They tire easily and plop down like small children at the first available resting place. Mealtime is the pinnacle of the day. In between, they conduct a kind of innocuous sandbox flirtation, brief as a toddler's attention span, with two women inmates, Dandy Nichols and Mona Washbourne, one of whom has a reputation for wetting herself. At odd, unprovoked moments, each man cries over his condition and we, in the audience, cry over ours, which is a short definition of tragedy...
