You can take the boy out of the country but you can’t . . . well, you know the rest. I suppose there’s still enough Essex County in me to get a chuckle out of this short segment (below) from the Late Show with David Letterman, in which Letterman and his musical sidekick, Paul Shaffer, banter about my Ontario home town. The on-air mention was apparently sparked by an in-studio, pre-show Q&A session about two weeks ago that involved Leamington residents Deb Jones Chambers and her husband, Jeff Chambers. For more background, read the story from the Leamington Post here.
Warms my heart to hear the name of our town heralded across North American air waves. It’s a treat to watch the videotape.
