GammaGlobulin Posted September 6, 2022 Share Posted September 6, 2022 My Dear Friends, Speaking of WC, what do you think about our friend, Larry David? And, do you like boaners, meaning stupid mistakes, when they happen to others? When I was young, I made it my purpose in life to watch every single film put out by WC. And, we loved everything about him, where I came from. WC was a handsome fellow, and not just by Pattaya standards. You know what? I really wish I could return to those halcyon and fickle and tumultuous days of my youth. And, there is one other adjective I am searching for, to describe my youth, but I cannot recall it now, due to old age. I know it starts with an F, but this adjective starting with an F is not the one you might be thinking of. When I recall it, I will post it below. Anyway, when I was young, I dearly loved WC. Maybe, I will watch one of his films, again. But, I doubt I will. Wait! I am almost getting it! The adjective I am thinking about sounds almost like the adjective "fallow", but not quite. Still, it escapes me, this adjective. Well then, what was your most loved WC film? Any good clips you might wish to share? If not, nobody here is forcing you to do so. Recently, I have been thinking about WC Fields, off and on. I don't know why. But, I have been. Maybe you, too? Regards, WC Globulin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GammaGlobulin Posted September 6, 2022 Author Share Posted September 6, 2022 It was not my fallow youth I wished to recall. I meant my callow youth. Slip of the tongue which is always telling. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Too many thrones in this world, still, it seems, for our own good. No doubt, WC might have said it better. BUT, actually, many, many of us, around the world, are just dying for the lack of a throne, when most needed. Too many just go out in the woods, or in the river. Which reminds me of a song, as is always the case. Edited September 6, 2022 by GammaGlobulin 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's because the Marx Bros grew up in NYC, on the East Side, if I'm not mistaken. Also, in any case, the Marx Brothers were well educated. Groucho studied dentistry, even. He was also a veterinarian. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
