      Ernest Borgnine is still acting. Marty. Bad Day at Black Rock. The Catered Affair. The Wild Bunch. From Here to Eternity. What a resume'!!

        Didn't Borgnine do a voice for some antimated movie not long ago? Meaning like 5 - 10 years ago. He's one of a kind. This friend has a bunch of VCR tapes (we moved most onto DVD, but not all yet) of the old Dean Martin Roasts. HILARIOUS STUFF!! Every week they had an all-star roasting table. Martin, Sammy Davis, Jr. Borgnine, Sinatra, Don Rickles, Carson, Ruth Buzzy, Redd Foxx, Johnathan Winters, Ronald Reagan, Muhammad Ali, etc. All of then smoked, except Reagan and Ali, but you could tell Reagan was drunk at a few. Political correctness has robbed us of some of the funniest stuff ever. But also most of them are gone now. Some celebrities are still a riot of course, but they are constantly worried Jesse Jackson and Al Sharpton (if those guys are really reverends, then I am the Pope!) are going to brand them as racist. Even Flip Wilson was a racist I guess. He was hilarious, too. Great stuff. Probably pull it up on You Tube, or buy them for next to nothing on Amazon or sites like that. Good stuff especially for those old enough to remember those folks. But younger people should see it, just to see what real, unrehearsed adlib really is.
