These jokes were from a friend in England.
I really liked them too. Remember Red Skeleton imitating a piece of bacon frying? They had so many jokes and gags.

Hi
I liked Bob Hope but never cared for Red Skeleton. Some of my favorites were George Carlin, Flip Wilson, Jonathan Winters, Jackie Gleason, Victor Borge, Robin Williams, Bob Newhart. Loved Carol Burnett show and Tim Conway , Joan Rivers, Phyllis Diller, Gilda Radner, Peter Sellers. Current favorite is Sebastian Maniscalco. I like Jon Stewart.
Different kind of humor...never liked slapstick like the Four Stooges or Abbot and Costello although Charlie Chaplin was wonderful.
Lot of funny people out there, can’t remember them all.

There’s some smart funny young stand up comics today that don’t use foul language or tell dirty jokes. I remember Totie Fields. I saw her in Vegas once and boy, was she a smutty mouth. So different from her TV appearances which I thought were funny. When I saw her live...meh...not so much , and I’m no prude. Buddy Hackett was another filthy comedian...saw him live in Vegas too....didn’t think he was funny on TV either.

Waxing nostalgic in FL.....Mary
