He Hates These Cans!

This is a very funny scene from Steve Martin’s classic
comedy flick “The Jerk”!
Kind of a Twofer, Carl Reiner produced this gem and as a
tribute to his vast skills and his 95th birthday I bring
you this farcical contribution to chase scenes everywhere.
These cans are defective… 🙂

Basketball

John Mulaney had a sport that he was a part of in
his youth that he wasn’t very good at!
Welcome to the human race, was my first reaction.
My second one was “I feel your pain!”.
I too was on a basketball team, warmed the bench
with a skill rarely seen in Biddy League B-ball.
I once made a lay up for the other team.
Stop laughing and watch the damned video…

On This Day in History

Carl Reiner was born back in 1922!
There is a very long list that comprises all that
Carl has done for the world of comedy, and I certainly
don’t have the time or the space to list it all here.
Yes, it’s that much!
Your Show of Shows, The Dick Van Dyke show, The 2000
Year Old Man series, and many MANY more!
Happy 95th Birthday Mr. Reiner!!!
Carl and Mel, gotta love it…

On This Day in History

Jerry Reed was born back in 1937!
As a solo artist he was noted for his song writing,
singing, acting and all around sense of humor.
He also was part of a great little band called The Old Dogs.
Mel Tillis, Weyland Jennings, Bobby Bare and Jerry, all
veterans of country western singing fame.
Here he is singing a humorous little ditty about being honest!
That is the goal at least…
