Unrelated, but John Doe sang a moving song entitled “The Meanest Man in the World”.

I’ll be watching this a little later on tonight. Thanks for posting the link.

I love Jack Benny. He was one of the all time greatest comedians. He puts dolts like Robin Williams and Adam (Fartjoke) Sandler to shame.

Ah, a Jack Benny movie. I thought it was going to be about Harry Reid.

Pretty funny stuff. Especially with the lawyers I’ve ever hired, crooked-r-us it hits home. Thanks for a good film. As a no-TV guy this was a pleasure to watch.

I’d not seen it since I was a kid in the 50s and saw it on TV. I always remembered it as being really funny especially the part about the flowers. When I found it I just had to post it.
