FYI
His Mama is a commie .................
You should try to convert her.
She will ruin him.
Guaranteed..................
A bit off-topic, but my favorite Red Skeleton story. Red talking:
I was at a baseball game, and someone yelled out, “Red Skeleton is here!” Everyone turned and looked at me. Many people even applauded.
I was embarrassed by all the attention. Maybe I shouldn’t have yelled that out.
It’s up to the older folks to teach this stuff.
We have the pledge here in Texas along with the Texas pledge.
Kids mostly half heartedly do it.
I was in and inner-city school where the principal made a real production out of it, music lead in and everything. I was shocked because it’s a 90% black student population and staff.
“Even though His Mama is a commie” Hopefully he has a sensible father in the picture that has not been alienated out of the family by Mama.
Otherwise, it’s only a matter of time before Mama will have him wearing dresses.
He wasn’t a skeleton. Red Skelton.
Hail Hydra
In a public high school school in California we sang “The Lord’s Prayer” in every chorus concert. Those were the days . . .
> Skeleton
What every kid thought his name was.
Admin: Please DO NOT correct the spelling in the title :-)
The Red Skelton show was my father’s favorite show that he would never miss.
Other than that he wasn’t much for TV.
His generation, the Greatest Generation needed laughs, as they had been dealt a hand with not much to laugh about.
First the Great Depression, then the War in which my father did his duty for six years mostly overseas.
If he were with us, he’d be 107 the day after Christmas.
100% i remember when he did it on the show. good stuff...
I heard him do that back in the seventies at Busch Stadium before the ballgame.
I’ve never seen a red skeleton before!
I bet most under-21’s have no idea what the Pledge even is.
His name is actually spelled Red Skelton, not Skeleton.
