28 July 2003The first name in monologuesThat would be Bob, as in Bob "Who are you calling a legend?" Hope, who died yesterday, and Susanna Cornett, one of those unpretentious mountain-type persons I was talking about, has a lovely tribute to the man who invented stand-up comedy. Posted at 7:13 PM to Almost YogurtI never managed to see the man in person, and the closest I ever got to him was when I walked past his Palm Springs home's driveway in about '78. I've always, however, enjoyed his performances. RIP, Bob. |
