[Dixielandjazz] My unlucky uncle

[John Farrell]

Reminds me of a relation of Victor Borge who invented a drink called One Up
which bombed on the market. He tried again, this time with Two Up - still
nothing. Then came Three Up and Four Up - no takers. So it was back to the
drawing board, Five Up was the result, again with hopeless commercial sales.
A month later Six Up appeared, no luck again. Then the guy died, never
knowing how close he came.
