Of all my favorite USENET groups, about the only one that has any
activity is rec.arts.tv.mst3k.misc. I guess all the posters have moved
to Facebook.

Is there a Marx brothers place on Facebook they go to? I can't find it - or
are they hiding from me?

Once I started my Facebook account, I followed many of the pages for
classic comedy teams, such as Laurel and Hardy and the Marx Brothers. I
found that lesser known teams (e.g. the Ritz Brothers) had their own page.

To my surprise, the most active classic comedy group on Facebook seems
to be the one for Wheeler and Woolsey. Why Wheeler and Woolsey? Don't
know, go figure.

I would never join a Facebook Group that would have me as a
member. ;-)
