The Beverly Hillbillies1962
Dean Cromwell:
[Jed is asked to give an acceptance speech upon receiving his honorary degree] You have an inspirational success story for those young people.
Milburn Drysdale:
I think just a simple thank you would be best.
Dean Cromwell:
Nonsense, we all want to hear the inspiring story of how Mr. Clampett made his fortune.
Jed Clampett:
Well, I could tell 'em that. It's short. Ya see, Granny was honin' for some gopher gravy. I went down to the slue to shoot one, but just as I cut loose, that little varmint skedaddled, and oil come a oozin' outa that slue just like sorghum out of a leaky hog trough. That's how I made my fortune.
Dean Cromwell:
Perhaps a simple thank you would be best.
