Is it any coincidence he died at 87?

"Adam in the Garden of Eden who said 'I got more ribs; you got more Broads?'
Cain, whose wife divorced him because he wasn't Able.
St. Francis whose own father called him a sissy...Never got a dinner."

I read this on cnn this morning. I spend a lot of time laughing at his antics..my all time favorite has to be Hatari..He and the Duke really played off each other to perfection...esp the scene with the monkys and his rocket...

RIP 'Pockets'

(for those who remember his "Dean Martin roast apperances)

RIP Red...

Red Buttons, and others like Red Skelton, Bob Hope, etc... real Gentlemen from another era. They were "a class act" in every sense of the word.

RIP, Red.

Pockets that's the wrong kind of goat.

And he was in the original Poseidon Adventure. That would ahve been a clasic movie if only sombody had strangled the background singer before they started filming.
