Whatever it is, I'm against it - except reminding the "ghosts" out
here that today is the 122nd anniversary of the birth of Groucho Marx.
If he'd had the genes of that world record holding woman from France
who lived to be 122, he might still be with us. Probably not *happy*
about it, though. Another 35 years on this earth without salt, cigars
and sex would likely have made him an honest to goodness grouch. ;-)

regularly. Lively discussions of classic comedy can still be found on
Facebook. I'm amazed at how active the Wheeler and Woolsey Facebook page is.

marx-brothers <your-email-address>. That's reasonably lively. The Facebook
Marx Brothers page is pretty quiet though.
