  2. That's a great video, and I laughed quite a bit myself. But why is Holly Robinson Peete so unamused? I'll chock it up to the nature of the event and leave it at that.

  3. After watching her on Celebrity Apprentice, because she's a humorless c**t?

  5. I love these stories at funerals. Did you ever see Tom Hanks do the story about "stop bending the shaft"? It's on YouTube, Letterman's show. Hysterical.

  13. RIP MCD. You know you were loved when folks tell funny stories at your funeral.

    Does anyone remember the old Mary Tyler Moore episode about the clown who dies in an elephant rampage? And everyone in the newsroom is cracking jokes about it, and she gets terribly upset, but at the funeral she bursts into uncontrollable laughter? One of the best TV shows ever. For some reason I thought of that--forgive me!

  14. "A little song, a little dance, a little seltzer down your pants."

    I loved that episode too. RIP Chuckles.

  15. Ah, yes, "Chuckles Bites the Dust"--next to the finale, that's probably the best known MTM episode. Let's not forget that, after the minister tells her it's OK to laugh, then she starts bawling...

  19. @Momster - Yes - that is a great episode!!!! I rank that up there with the falling turkeys episode on WKRP.

    I am very sad about MCD. He seemed like a really nice guy.

  20. Sometimes all you can do is laugh otherwise you may not be able to stop crying...RIP MCD.

    I love Tom Hanks for no other reason than he signs his tweets "Hanx"

  21. If you guys have never seen that Toddlers and Tiaras with Tom Hanks on You Tube.. DO IT. Hysterical. I love that guy. RIP MCD.

  22. @Momster - LOVED that episode of MTM. "A little song, a little dance. A little selzer down your pants." :-)

    @Treesap Covered Lady - I feel the same way. I adore that man.

    What a funny story. Glad he could make MCD's love ones smile on an otherwise sad/somber day.
