Arlo and Janis by Jimmy Johnson for February 04, 1995
Transcript:
Arlo enthusiastically points to his computer and yells out to Janis, "I found it! Come look!" Janis looks at the screen while Arlo exclaims, "On the Internet! A picture of a coffee pot in England!" Janis walks away and remarks, "That's stupid!" Arlo turns back to his computer and thinks, "Yeah, and Edison's first recording was 'Mary had a little lamb'."
