I am reminded of a cut on the "First Family" album...Jackie and John are
greeting guests at the White House...the dialog went something like...

Presenter: "Pablo Casals"
Jackie: "Oh, Pablo, it is so good to see you."
JFK: "Good Evening Mr. Casals."

Presenter: "Leonard Bernstein"
Jackie: "Lennie, how are your doing."
JFK: "Nice you could come Mr. Bernstein."

etc.

then

JKF:"Jackie, why is it always your friends?"
