Too bad you didn’t take time to become acquainted with her humor. She was a real hoot. We could really use more like her today instead of those who try to pass for comedians.

I had lunch with her one time. A real down to earth lady. It was the first ever Bakersfield Business Conference. Was held outside at Stockdale Country Club where I was a bartender. She was part of the line up of entertainment that day. There was only about 150 people in attendance and Phyllis had just finished her bit when lunch was served. The waitresses all finished serving and while the guests were eating we all got our lunch and sat down inside in the formal dining room to eat. Phyllis got her lunch and came and sat down with us....the help. I laughed so hard I cried all through lunch.
Quite a memory.

It's not just comedians - how about actors? Compare the big name actors of the 40s, 50s and 60s to the krap of the last 20-25 years.
Do the same for musicians too. From big bands and early rock & roll to the KRAP of the last 20 years.
It's all KRAP today, 24/7.

Agreed.

Good post.
