I remember him as Dean Martin and Jerry Lewis and it broke my heart when they split up, never saw him at that level again over here since.

I shall try and forget my dislike of Dean Martin for splitting them up now I know the truth.

I just watched an Audience with Joan Rivers, it had me in tears of laughter, ending with choking tears about the tale of her husbands suicide which ended with a laugh.

She wasn't performing at the time Bruv, she was stating her opinion, her truth. She was entitled as much as anyone else to say how she sees it. I gotta admit, she made sense to me. But, we're Jews. Maybe that has something to do with it. I respect her opinion more than Selena Gomez, that college grad.


I agree. I was thinking, 'What over the top?"
