the corey kluber show -- his biggest hits of the year

thanks to my play-by-play partner, howard, i found out that sports time ohio is broadcasting several of cy kluber's games, starting saturday, at noon (when he beat tampa, 1-0, in his last game of the year) -- sunday night, at nine, they're showing the pre-match...of the top two cy-young contenders, when our cy...outpitched seattle's cy, 2-0 (july 30) -- early this morning, they showed one of corey's 14-strikeout performances -- that one in houston, september 16

birdie num-num

as kids, we loved this movie,...especially the 'birdie num-num' line -- we'd use it, with each other

more scenes, from this movie -- had me, roaring...with laughter, yesterday

interview with sellers

the incomparable louis prima...and keely smith

'WHERE ARE THE TURTLES?!!!'

i had a chocolate turtle, a few days ago -- wasn't good, but reminded me...of this memorable scene...from the tv series the office

'carousel,' from lincoln center

last night, i watched most of 'carousel,' from lincoln center -- i just watched the beginning, on pbs's web-site -- very nice -- very nicely done

moffo, merrill, candid camera, burl ives, bjorling

in her last interview, moffo talks about her relationship with robert merrill

moffo and merrill -- 'ditte alla giovine'

then there's this great appearance by merrill,...on 'candid camera'

here, she sings 'chacun le sait, chacun le dit,' from "la fille du regiment,'...on burl ives's tv show (1964); then, with ives, 'turn around' ('where are you going, my little one')

finally, merrill -- very funny -- talking about jussi bjorling, and a recording of the quartet

for more quartet -- quartets -- including one...with bjorling

look what these dummies can do

groucho follow-up -- new and old

i attended the great musical '1776,' in pittsburgh, a couple of weeks ago, and, playing the role of james wilson was jeremy czarniak

in his bio, it says he created the one-man show 'groucho: a life in review' -- i'd love to see that -- it says he's doing it in the sullivan theater in north carolina, this spring -- from his web-site, that looks like it's in fayetteville, and it's the only upcoming production i could find of the show -- too bad

anyone wanna go to...carolina? -- 'gone to carolina, in my mind'

okay -- so now, here's...the real groucho -- a few...snippets -- actually, clips -- good-sized...clips

first, groucho, in top form -- as a panelist, on 'what's my line?'

another gem -- this time, he's the mystery guest

another...classic groucho -- here, roasting johnny carson

a few weekends ago, i spent hours, watching clips...from his 'you bet your life' -- loved it -- love it, still

'say the magic word, you win a hundred dollars'

there are scores of videos...from the show, on youtube

here's a clip -- not from 'you bet your life,' but from 'the jack benny show'
