Norman Lear turns 100: Hollywood producer says he has 23 projects in development

His birthday was July 27, but close enough. He's an American treasure, that's for sure.

Besides all the TV series he's responsible for, Norman Lear also started the People for the American Way organization to support "Truth, Justice, and the American Way." Wasn't that Superman's motto?

"Boy the way Glen Miller played
songs that made the Hit Parade
Guys like us we had it made
Those were the days.
Didn't need no welfare state
Everybody pulled his weight
Gee, our old La Salle ran great
Those were the days.
and you knew who you were then
gGirls were girls and men were men
Mister, we could use a man like Herbert Hoover again.
People seemed to be content.
Fifty dollars paid the rent.
Freaks were in a circus tent
Those were the days.
Take a little Sunday spin
Go to watch the Dodgers win
Have yourself a dandy day
that cost you under a fin.
Hair was short and skirts were long
Kate Smith really sold a song.
I don't know just what went wrong.
Those were the days."
