    I was sad to hear that Harvey Korman died last night.I saw him and Tim Conway in Laughlin perform awhile back and they were funny.These oldtimers play the casino circuit throughout the country right up till the day they die.I always liked the both of them in the Carol Burnett Show.It's sad that comedy like that is now looked upon as being outdated where they weren't X rated or political.

    I think there was a movie with Conway and Korman where they were down and out horse players and I cracked up at the scene where it was raining at the Santa Anita parking lot so they cooked up sausage in their beat up station wagon in a hibachi pot and almost got asphyxiated.I heard where Conway actually tried becoming a jockey as a kid in Cleveland.

    Then there was Conway as Mr.Tudball and that always cracked me up.Dorf was funny too.

          He was great in Blazing Saddles.

          Yup Sportsgirl,I forgot about Blazing Saddles.That was a funny movie and he was great in it.Korman was in alot of series as a character actor and I remember him being funny in The Munsters.The funniest Munsters episode was when Paul Lynde played the poor sighted doctor who asked why Herman brought his dog to the appointment when he shook his hand.

          Another Paul Lynde moment was on Love American Style when he was with a bunch of bikers and they asked him what kind of chopper he had.He said a Veg O matic.

          I saw a CD of his square on Hollywood Squares and it was hilarious.Growing up as a kid no one ever brought it up that the guy was gay.Things were really simple back then where those things never came up if someone was discreet about it.
