[ it's time for a musical interlude on the network. for a second, it probably sounds like it caught a radio signal mid-song. hal's accent slips through once or twice, but for the most part it’s an uncanny mimicry of the 1950's original. ]
-back to Constantinople, no you can't go back to Constantinople; now it's Istanbul not Constantinople.
[ he stops abruptly, segues smoothly into speaking. there's no video, but it's easy to hear the grin in his voice. ]
Good evening, Tranquility. I'd like to personally thank you for last week's entertainment, and offer my sincere congratulations on your deft handling of the pirate incursion. I'm sure we can all sleep soundly knowing what we're capable of when we put our minds together. Or our teeth. Or claws, or guns; a fair few swords, if I'm not mistaken.
[ it’s said with an edge that keeps it from being genuine. which it isn't, obviously. it's a thinly guised mockery of the disorder and violence, but the amusement and thanks seem true enough. he picks up the lyrics again a beat later, and he only cuts the feed as an afterthought; he doesn't particularly care if people can hear him. ]
Why did Constantinople get the works? That's nobody's business but the Turks'-

Even old New York was once New Amsterdam.

Perhaps we ought to follow their lead and change the name of our dear ship.

I'm afraid I'm not familiar with that particular iteration, but Bing Crosby and Ella Fitzgerald did a fair one. A bit heavy-handed, admittedly.

I do try. And I take it you mean text, considering your phobia of actually using any other form of communication.
