11. I have a personal story about Tommy Smothers
When I was 10 (and that was a few decades ago), he and his family were dining in a Rochester, NY restaurant and my father goaded me into going to introduce myself. I had see the Smothers Brothers but I was pretty young. I don't remember the whole conversation but he was polite and sweet and when I asked him to dance, he turned me down by saying he saw me dance with my father and he would just feel like he had two left feet. I know now that he really didn't want to dance with some guys kid but he never made me feel the least bit embarrassed and I've watched him ever since. He is a man of great honor who treat animals and children with dignity and kindness,
