[I hope I get this right. Its 25 years or so. Think of a big male chorus singing sort of a grand bouncy Mame-ish melody.]
Who makes the fog surrounding the Golden Gate simply disappear?
Phyllis!
Who makes the warning bells on the cable cars play 'The Gang's All Here'?
Phyllis!
Who charms the clams on Fisherman's Wharf right out of their shells?
Who lights the lamps of Chinatown just by walking in view?
Who?
Phyllis!
Phyllis!
Phyllis!
It sure isn't you!
Phyllis with Cloris Leachman, an MTM spin-off that ran two seasons.

I'm only back for a few minutes. I won't have internet at home for a few weeks it looks like so my time here will be very limited until than.
And that's probably a good thing.

Yeah, but I don't spend all my day in the library or this place.
I got places to go, people to see and all that junk.

Don't laugh...
The theme from "One Day at a Time".
This is it
This is life, the one you get
So go and have a ball...

"Sometimes the world looks perfect,
Nothing to rearrange.
Sometimes you get a feeling
Like you need some kind of change.
No matter what the odds are this time,
Nothing's going to stand in my way.
This flame in my heart,
And a long lost friend
Gives every dark street a light at the end.
Standing tall, on the wings of my dream.
Rise and fall, on the wings of my dream.
The rain and thunder
The wind and haze
I'm bound for better days.
It's my life and my dream,
Nothing's going to stop me now."
ladies and gentlemen, Mr. Mark Linn Baker...

GROWING PAINS
"Show me that smile again. (Show me that smile)
Don’t waste another minute on your cryin’.
We're nowhere near the end (nowhere near)
The best is ready to begin.
Oooohhh. As long as we got each other
We got the world spinnin right in our hands.
Baby you and me, we gotta be
The luckiest dreamers who never quit dreamin’.
As long as we keep on givin’
we can take anything that comes our way
Baby, rain or shine, all the time
We got each other Sharin’ the laughter and love."
WELCOME BACK KOTTER
"Welcome back,
Your dreams were your ticket out.
Welcome back,
To that same old place that you laughed about.
Well the names have all changed since you hung around,
But those dreams have remained and they're turned around.
Who'd have thought they'd lead ya (Who'd have thought they'd lead ya)
Here where we need ya (Here where we need ya)
Yeah we tease him a lot cause we've got him on the spot, welcome back,
Welcome back, welcome back, welcome back."
