Is “unvarnished” a southernism? I grew up hearing it. The guest co-host on Live with Kelly and Ryan this morning was giving Ryan a hard time this morning for saying “unvarnished” to describe their show vs American Idol. She didn’t seem to think it was a term to describe something. Then I find it used here today. :)
I thought of Weird Al, but of the little part about landing on the plane in “Albuquerque.” “I had my tray table up, in the full upright and locked position…”
“Overture, curtains, lights. This is it. We’ll hit the heights. And oh, what heights we’ll hit! On with the show, this is it!” Music to my ears. I wish Looney Tunes still showed on Saturday morning! I’d watch!
