Here’s a clip of Mickey dancing with the tall girl:

The skit was not at all dated for me....I was tall in high school and outgrew all my potential boyfriends, LOL. I ended up normal height....but there were some years I longed to be 5 foot 2 with eyes of blue jitterbugging with Mickey Rooney.
When I watch these old clips, I truly wonder at those who sit enthralled for hours by the likes of Jon Stewart and David Litterpan who are referred to by the media (and themselves) as "comedians".
When you watch classic comedians you know that the unfunny, repulsive Stewarts and Lettermans of TV fame have more nerve than a sore tooth to consider themselves in the same comedic class.
