Don’t forget Ole Lonesome George Gobel. US Army Air Corps. When he told stories of his WWII service in Oklahoma (”That must have been where I was needed because that’s where they sent me”), noted that he had done a good job as “The Japs never got any further than Tulsa.”

Notable quotes;
I’ve never been drunk, but often I’ve been overserved.

Did you ever get the feeling that the world is a tuxedo and you’re a pair of brown shoes?

If it weren’t for electricity, we’d all be watching television by candlelight.

Funny stuff.

You must have seen the clip of George Gobel on the Tonight Show with Dean Martin and Bob Hope.

"I’ve never been drunk, but often I’ve been overserved."

"Is being drunk bad?"

"Ask a glass of water."
