in the unemployment line. After all, wasn't "Freddie the Freeloader" just a homeless person. Certainly not PC to make remarks that might be considered as ridicule of any of our "socially oppressed". But comics like Red could make you laugh without gutter and bathroom talk. Most of today's "humor", IMO, belongs in the sewer. Gittin' older and grumpier here. Happy

No, I don't think so Steven. Red was one of the best. Good clean skits. Stuff the whole family could enjoy. Most of today's "humor" and "comics", Do belong in the sewer.
