Conrad Bain, best known for playing millionaire Phillip Drummond, turns 81 today. This brings on thoughts of Todd Bridges's substance abuse, Gary Coleman's lawsuit against his parents, and Dana Plato's O'D. Rather than dwell on any of that, I bring you a crucial part of the "Diff'rent Strokes" theme misheard by me at six years old, affecting my whole concept of the show:
A man is born,
He's a man of means.
Then along come two,
They got nothin' but the genes...
Yes, I thought it was the story of Arnold and Willis finding Mr. Drummond, their biological father.
