The Comics

The Keystone Cops were funny Chaplin, Keaton, and Fields too. Laurel & Hardy and Will Rogers were some of the names we knew. Who can forget the Stooges or all the pies we saw them throw. Who didn't laugh at the Brothers Marx or Abbot & Costello? Berle, Caesar, Crosby & Hope could always bring a tear. So would Allen, Paar, Kovacs, and Carson as they guffawed us to the floor. Gleason had Carney, Martin had Lewis, Lucy had Desi and Carol Burnett had her crew. Cosby, Pryor, and Murphy all taught us to laugh anew. Cohen, Benny, Diller, Rivers, and Rickles are names that we recollect. Who wouldn't fall out of his chair when Rodney "Got no respect." Let's not leave out any of the Brits as Benny Hill, Mr. Bean, and the Two Ronnies were funnier than some. Their take on humor was a bit different from our own But that's why we had such fun with Faulty Towers and Monty's Python. We have had Billy, Whoopi, Robin, and Carlin, Johnny, Jay, Dave, and too many more to name. But each still brings us laughter, Today their job's the same. They still poke fun at life's human side as did the jester who first began the gaff. So, when a comic entertains you... Be generous with your laughs.
