I remember watching the Smothers brothers TV show as a youngin. Always thought they were funny with some political humor thrown in . Dick was a racer if I remember correctly. Also loved Laugh In with Rowan and Martin . Man that goes back a loooong ways

It dawned on me...there are now generations who never watched or even heard of the Smothers brothers or Johnny Carson. They probably wouldn't find the above as funny as we oldsters do.

Their loss...

No balls?

Guy in my town got aggressive with his Viper a few months back. Straight up a hillside into a tree. DOA.

Poor judgment and insane power are still a bad idea.

That was hilarious, when comedy was genuinely funny, entertaining, and made you think.
