Good one.

I don't know but I loved him on Laugh In. I remember him as the dirty old man on the park bench sitting next to Ruth Buzzie. He said"Do you believe in the hereafter?" She replied"Yes"... "Then you know what I'm here after" Hugs

PS. Who was the President that made a cameo on Laugh In?

That was Nixon.

It just occurred to me that all or almost all te great comedians are dead - except for Jonathan Winters?

Good old tricky Dick. He never got any respect. He screwed up big time with Watergate but was very good with his foreign policy unlike someone else I can think of! He was a very smart man but a loner. I always felt sorry for him.
It's a real shame when a great comic or comedian dies. I love it when people make me laugh. There is not a better feeling than laughing.
See if you know this one. One of the best stand up comics but little known. Many others ripped off lots of his bits especially Dennis Leary.

Bill Hicks. Dead or alive?

Arte Johnson is still alive and as well as he can be, as he has been battling Non-Hodgkins Lymphoma for many years. He has appeared in some movies, but mostly travels with his wife around the country (but I forgot why and I didn't check www.imdb.com ! I know he's a Michigan native, and still lives in Benton Harbor, MI.

As for Bill Hicks - - never heard of him!

PS I think you would like Bill Hicks. Unfortunately he died years ago. I'll give you a little tidbit of his humur. He did a routine about Catholics. In it he says" Every Catholic church you go to has the cross as a symbol. Do you really think that if Jesus ever returns he ever wants to see another F------ cross?"

This might be a tough one for non gearheads.
