Anything further, father?

Talking of funny legs, George Carl (NOT Carlin) inspired me to do the work I did for all those years.  I wanted an international act (without language), but never quite made it...

You'll find some very grainy clips on YouTube.  This bit from Johnny Carson has the best visuals, but the sound track buzzes, sadly...

Haven't quite cracked embedding a YouTube video in a comment just yet...

This, that, and Every other thing

Bobby, thanks for this web space

 

and I'm so excited about how quickly it's picking up & growing!  Borsky and noprophet, I love the play that's begun with the 9 characters :-)

 

thanks for that Marx Brothers video!

 

I was clowning around and singing all day inspired by those genius antics!

 

thanks for everything!!!

You give us so many reasons to be grateful :-D

<3 Eva

What would Harpo say?

I showed Duck Soup to a high school film history class two years ago.  They didn't enjoy it much. 

 

I imagine the password routine from Horse Feathers as a marriage ritual.
