"When I was in DC as a Congressional Intern, there circulated a story that another intern was fired because he insulted Grandy. Apparently, Grandy was standing next to the buttons on the elevator, and the intern got on and said, "Lido Deck, please..."

No offense but I spent some time in the DC area in the past few years and have listened to Fred Grandy on his show. Fred Grandy has a good sense of humor and tends to use a lot of self-deprecating humor. I just can't imagine Fred getting uptight about a good joke like that.

It is probably apocryphal. At the time (1989), I was still a clueless liberal working for a Dem congressman. I heard the story from other Dem interns.
