Anybody remember Foster Brooks? "The Airline Pilot".

[trof]

Oh me.
The tears are running down my cheeks.
If you could use a good laugh right now, go here:

1. I remember him. God, he was funny.

I think he cut that from his act, tho.

2. I remember him

He used to crack me up and I was too young to drink....

3. I know a funny, true story.

Back in the post WW II days, when airline travel was really beginning to 'take off' (pun intended), a guy somehow pissed off his chief pilot and was fired. But back then, you didn't have to turn in your uniform (which you had paid for).

He was a good pilot and got hired by another airline.

Every year, at Christmas, he would put the old uniform on and head for the bar at the airport.
Just get snockered.
Buy drinks for everybody in the bar.
And basically do the Foster Brooks routine.
:evilgrin:

6. I loved Foster Brooks. I laughed hysterically when he dropped a Ming vase in front of Bill Cosby...

...he was a regular on Bill Cosby's variety show in the 1970s (along with possibly Miss Susan Tolski). Foster was a riot.

7. I'm hanging on to this. It isn't everyone's cup of tea, but I can't

wait to watch to the rest of them! Thank you so much!
