19. Do you know the "Jimmy Jimmy Bo-Bo" story?
Evidently an informed mom makes a nightly habit of watching Jim Lehrer's NEWS HOUR, and her 3-year old took a liking to the anchor, whom he began calling "Jimmy Jimmy Bo-Bo."

On his birthday, at his mother's request to PBS, Lehrer phoned the kid to wish him a happy birthday.

"Hello, Kevin? This is Jimmy Jimmy Bo-Bo."

I heard Lehrer tell this story on WAIT WAIT, DON'T TELL ME, one of NPR's weekend news quiz programs.
