Lily Tomlin was on Laugh-In with Dan Rowan & Dick Martin. That's the show that gave Goldie Hawn her start. The Smothers Brothers were guests on a lot of variety shows, & then they had their own; they were always at loggerheads with the censors, & eventually they got cancelled. The Church Lady was on Saturday Night Live. Censors were a biggie in the sixties; remember the Carol Burnett episode about the nudists? The writers had something in the script describing slow dancing, & the censors rejected the wording as too suggestive. Frustrated, Carol Burnett asked them how they, the censors, would like the actors to refer to the dancing. the answer.... "cheek to cheek" & Our Miss Brooks- wasn't Osgood Conklin, the principal, played by Gale Gordon, later of "Lucy" fame? & Walter Denton, Connie Conklin's would-be suitor, was played by Richard Crenna!

Thats a purty one too! I love the tendrils. Let us know if it changed color. I found my Hawaiian double white, lol. I have several blooms about to open. It was one John confiscated and lost the tag but I was pretty sure that was the one since it had fuzzy leaves. I saw the two skirts dropping last night so know I know where it went, lol.

I can't imagine losing a 12 yr old. My DD died when she was 18. I always wonder what she would have been like now at 32. But at 18 you have somewhat of an idea. At 12, they are just getting started. That's probably the last year when you can still call them "a child". I know that was a struggle, especially since it was such a bazaar incident. I'm sure the Paul Harvey story is ripe with memories for you. Sending Hugs... gneegirl

Rain from Harvey tonight

The weatherman said it would start raining about 4:00 this afternoon. It has looked ready to pour since noon, I've heard some thunder but it is 5:30 now & just an occasional drop. Supposed to get 4-7", & closer to the 7" expected but I'm questioning that upper end. The chart the weatherman was showing, looked like all around us was getting about 3-4", don't know why Bowling Green would be "lucky" enough to get the 6 or 7". We got about 1 1/2" a couple days ago, so ground is pretty soggy already. Westbourne Homestead is liking the rain, I found a new scape yesterday, & another showed up today.

That's HEDLEY!!!! He did well with Mel Brooks too. Had forgotten so many of his characters. The old Jewish mother, the old man on the porch, all the movies. And so much more.

Definitely an underrated talent.

Harvey Korman, Tim Conway and Carol Burnett were a great team. When/If it comes out, I want to buy all their tv shows on tapes.

So sad to hear he passed away. I was lucky enough to see him & Tim Conway on stage here in Clearwater 3 years ago..what a night! They did the barber shop routine among others..laughed so hard my sides ached! He was undeniably a true comedy legend!

I loved Harvey on the Carol Burnett Show. I did a lot of babysitting in the 70s and loved watching that show on Saturday nights. Good memories!

Loved the man, too! What a team he and Tim were! Loved the CB show where Tim is the dentist and Harvey is the patient in the chair...he couldn't conceal his laughter at Tim shooting the novocaine into his own hand!

Loved him in Blazing Saddles (that's Hedley!!!)!!! I was a young gal of 17 then!!!!

And my fave is where CB comes downstairs wearing the green draperies, even the rod and tiebacks, sooooo darn funny (Gone With the Wind) and says to Rhett..."saw it in the window and HAD to have it" !!!

Miss him for sure!

RIP, Mr. Korman

Does anyone remember he was the voice of The Great Kazoo on the Flintstones? What a talent! They sure must be laughing in Heaven today. That's Hedley, not Hedy!

Oh, I loved that man. He was so funny. Nearly all the truly great funny men and women are gone now. Most of what passes for comedy now I don't find the least bit amusing.

RIP Hedley!

I read that this morning when I brought in the paper. So, so sad. I just loved him & he was perfect with Carol & Tim. Comedy sure has changed over the years. I barely laugh at today's so-called "jokes". RIP Harvey.
