Sorry...I posted silliness without reading the whole article.

Sad that someone felt that life was no longer worth living.

It was real comedy. I remember listing to Fibber McGee and Molly, Fred Allen, Jack Benny, And So many others on the old Philco radio.
That was great comedy.

I was born in 52, so most of my comedy was from TV.

I Love Lucy,
McHale’s Navy,
Milton Berle,
F-Troop,

and later on,
Monty Python and SNL.

And of course, the Stooges every Saturday Morning!

LOL. You are a young'un then.....
Of course I remember the first TV shows too. I remember seeing my first TV in 1948. It was considered a miracle of the time...

BTW, I was born somewhat before WWII got started. Depending on wheather you accept it started in 1939 (it did) or 1941 (US entered war)
I was either 1 yrs old or 3 yrs old when it started.lol
I just wanted to confuse the issue a bit.lol

I liked TV, but I REALLY loved my Dad’s Hi-Fi record player! Mostly Classical records, but Broadway Shows, Hank Williams, Comedy, and the Kingston trio! Music 24/7.

Sad about the death. There have been many at Niagara Falls through the year’s.

Yes...I remember that.

The music, the entertainment, the comedy...ALL were so much better then.

“Getting old ain’t for sissies!”

It certainly isn’t.

Good luck to you,too.

At least we were lucky enough to know the best of this country——I barely recognize it anymore.
