Tony Randall is a classic - this is a cheap shot by him, but I have always been a fan.
Randall is 'Mr. New York.' I've bumped into him at the opera and classical music room at the W 4th St Tower Records, on the Subway, etc.
He is an oldschool NYer - hopelessly liberal, in that NYC way. I wish he wasn't, but he clearly is.
His is a cool guy and a class act, notwithstanding this cheap shot.

I agree. I'm a Tony fan from way back when, and have had a few interactions with him myself, always kind and classy. It is such a bummer to hear your faves trash other things you believe in, isn't it? :-(

Tony Randall rides the subways? For real?! In 18 years in this town, I have into several actors and one TV personality on the street -- mostly on MacDougal Street (for non-NYers: where the best coffee is, or was ten years ago), in the Village, but I have NEVER seen anyone fasmous (or anyone famous, either) on the subways. If you've actually seen him riding with normal folk, I will forgive him his asinine remark, and a lot more. (BTW, do you remember what line, year, and time of night it was? If I repeat your story, I promise to give full attribution -- I herd from this NYHitman, er, I mean, HitmanNY).

His is a cool guy and a class act, notwithstanding this cheap shot. That's my reading as well. Those of us who have intractibly liberal relatives (whom we like) of the same sort know what you mean.
