> 39 is a great place to be---not too young---not too old. If I remember correctly---Jack Benny was 39 for about 39 years.
Hey, thanks Bobby. You know, I think Jack was maybe 39 for about..mmmm..1 year, approximately. I could be mistaken, though. :)You know (if I may be a downer..lol) it's sad because they just don't make GREAT comedians anymore. They are a dying breed. Robin Williams, Steve Martin are getting older...George Carlin(RIP)...even Frank Zappa, who the world NEEDS so badly, because I thought he was comedic in a way through his music, and I loved so much of his stuff. I remember sitting in the basement bedroom with my friends as a kid, with the sound turned down, listening to "Joe's Garage" ("This is the central scrutinizer..."..lol) plus other great hits like "Catholic Girls" (Gawd..I won't dare mention the lyrics..I'll be banned for life...lol. And yes, I am a Catholic Guy..hah)
Sorry..got lost in the moment..;-)
