My thanks for all the e mail comments regarding today's comedy corner---yes Lou Jacobi was one of a kind and Myron Cohen gave us humor from another era.  If you remember it---you, as I, are OLD.   A simpler time---perhaps but I don't think editorializing on that is germane since things do change.  But, one last thought;  humor should, besides being funny, make a point---Lenny Bruce did, Richard Pryor did, and ever so many more as distinct to today's joke jocks of junk.

Some faces now to put with today's voices---



Forget the slogans for THe Book of Morman and "a musical for the 21st Century" --This was one for the ages---and the cast (w/ Gilford and Mostel---amazing)
