Jerry Lewis Passes

at 91.  Some of the younger peeps on here really missed out on a true comedic legend.  His stuff was mostly outrageous and goofy, almost seemingly paving the way for Jim Carrey.  As a kid, you looked forward to trying to stay up all night and see if his Telethon for Muscular Dystrophy could break the previous year's record.

My doctor told me I needed to stop masturbating.  I asked him why, and he said, "because I'm trying to examine you."

Never much cared for Lewis.  Dean Martin carried him.

Plus, I thought he died years ago.

They were a good pair.


As a kid, I enjoyed their movies on my 10" B&W TV.


I wasn't looking for an Oscar performance, just a laugh or two.


He used his celeb status for a great cause!

Five statements of WISDOM
1. You cannot legislate the poor into prosperity, by legislating the wealth out of prosperity.
2. What one person receives without working for, another person must work for without receiving.
3. The government cannot give to anybody anything that the government does not first take from somebody else.
4. You cannot multiply wealth by dividing it.
5. When half of the people get the idea that they do not have to work because the other half is going to take care of them, and when the other half gets the idea that it does no good to work because somebody else is going to get what they work for, that my dear friends, is the beginning of the end of any nation.
