Parts 1 and 2 will play back to back automatically. She was brilliant! Lots of audience reaction shots.

Cirque du Soleil Cat Move

For some reason it made me laugh a lot. What a hoot! Bet it will give you (at the very least) a heavy duty snicker... even if you don't like cats. ;)))

George Carlin 1937-2008 "I'm an old F#%k" . . . . . . . HBO 2008




George's last HBO Special (2008). 7 parts available. This first part deals with old age and death. George was hysterically funny until the end. Very recent.

Bill Maher gets it ALL off his chest . . . One of his best rants ever! . . .



Political satire at its best. From this weeks show ("Real Time" is not available here in Canada). He nails every subject right on target. So much is wrong south of the border... it's hard to keep track. Bill brings you up to date.

First there was Fanny ~ Then came Barbra


Fanny Brice was the inspiration for "Funny Girl". Here she is in a thick Yiddish accent...



Now compare her to Barbra Streisand playing Fanny Brice... Hard to believe it was her very first movie! Reminds me... Down the road I should buy the DVD on Blu-Ray. ;) Oy! How gay can you get? lol

Remember When?: Phyllis Diller




Phyllis Diller (now 90 and still a hoot). My favourite comedienne of all time. Here are a couple of her routines.

To this day I still roar when I hear the two original records I have of hers. Phyllis was best with her own writing. It seems that no one was better at coming up with those lines than the master herself. I went with my family to see her at the Imperial Room in the Royal York Hotel, here in Toronto. She was incredible! I almost got to meet her backstage, but due to a mix-up, I missed out. But I did get a call from the Maitre-d the next day. He said Miss Diller had waited for me backstage, but carelessly nobody told me that! Grrrr.

Click here for an audio bio with many excerpts from Phyllis' first two albums, "Are you Ready?" and "Phyllis Diller Laughs". 29 min - I have these, but they are very scratched due to many years of use. Guaranteed to make you laugh!

Enjoy...
