Thumbs up Saving money.

John Belushi.
John Candy.
Chris Farley.
Lou Costello.
And 'Curly' from The Three Stooges.


What do all of them have in common?

Fat, funny and famous.

I need to get enough money saved to go out to Hollywood and be discovered. Fat and funny? I got that down pat.

Oh yeah, they're all dead too.
That part I don't admire about them.

Moose, you are funny...that's for sure!! We don't want you to be "dearly departed", though, so let's not even think of that!

John Candy was one of my favorite actors to watch...he was good at everything he did. There's not a movie he was in that I didn't like.

So, what kind of fund raising ideas do you have in mind? A stand-up routine at a local comedy club? Keep us posted....some of us might want to show up incognito and heckle you!!!

Fund raising...

Been watching comedians on the youtube and thought about it.
More of a 'Spoken Word' like Henry Rollins.

Can't do stand up.
I'm in a wheelchair! HA!

And heckling...
Well, there's no smily available to emote the fun I would have with those brave enough to try.

Chris Farley... I still laugh when I think about his skits on SNL.

You'll wind up living in a van down by the river!

Can't tell ya how many times I said that to my kids.

Nobody could break a coffee table life Chris.

Go for it Moose. You never know till you try. Do a YouTube and send it to Conan O'Brien.

I'd love to see a great comedian like yourself performing "sit down" from a wheelchair! Go for it!

I loved all of those guys. They were so talented, so much to live for and yet so stupid.

What a shame
