@hbgphotoguy Always!❤️ Nothing else was allowed on our TV, and, as kids, we were always excited watching the numbers go up; he was a hero to us; he knew how to get lots of folks to donate lots of money!
Oh; manners; Good Morning!
@hbgphotoguy Social media is good, but has taken away🤔🤔hmm.... real life social/socializing skills! The younger generations (I'm not totally senior citizen, just getting there😅) are glued to their phones!
Me to adult kids "Let's go see a play"
Them: "Why? We can watch it on YouTube & don't have to dress up" 😵
I'll just sit in my corner watching Jerry Lewis
@Gramdma2011 It would be nice for something like what Jerry Lewis mastered to a art could be done today ... but sadly ... i don't think it could. Part of it is social media. Part is the attention span of most people can't go 15 minutes, let along 21 hours!
Plus, you need to find a person with the pipes that Ed Machmon had. And sadly, I don't think anyone alive today has that.
At least we have throwback videos like these to rekindle fond memories like this.
