TOGA TOGA TOGA

A friend and I were going home from a Toga party at around 2-3 AM and stopped at a convenience store. The guy behind the counter gave us the once over and asked what we'd been up to.
Told him Toga party. He said he definetly has go to one of those.
Animal House had just came out and he wasn't familiar with it yet.

Jack Lemon and Walter Matthau (Great comedy team!)

I always loved the scene with the Pigeon sisters where they're describing sitting in front the open refrigerator "in natures own" to cool off.
One of them says, "Can you imagine such a thing?"
Matthau. "I'm working on it."

Out To Sea is a another one.

Agreed. One of my all-time favorites.

It looks to be a Millenial’s list of top comedies. Many great comedies missing, and lots of lowbrow humor and newer movies that are only funny if you don’t know better about what you are missing.

A much ignored/missed fantastic spoof of 70s early wokism in Mill Valley near SF is “Serial” with Martin Mull, Tuesday Weld, and Christopher Lee.

Highly recommended.
