"Make like a Mister Milquetoast and you'll get shut out/Make like a Mister Meek and you'll get cut out/Make like a little lamb, and wham, you're shorn..."
Just a song that came on the car radio today and caught my attention. I thought the lyrics had some resonance for Americans today — one man advising another man to amplify his masculinity. Even better with the video clip — from a movie I've never seen, based on a 1961 Neil Simon play.

Zero men in shorts in the clip. This must be the Professor's closing argument.
Shorts? Everyone is in a jacket and tie.
Frank's right. You've got to ask for what you want. If you don't you won't. Always assume the sale and be outcome independent. Not one of Frank's best tunes but it does tell the tale.
Great movie. Dad: "Are you married?" Sinatra: "Yes." Dad: "You're a bum... What?" Last scene, kid brother inherits Sinatra's little black book and is starting to call the girls.
Wonderful movie -
"Why am I a bum?"
"Are you married?"
"No."
"Then you are a bum!"
Frank made a bunch of wholesome movies.
