Good morning, WA2K radio audience.
Thanks for all the great contributions.
edgar, I do suppose you know the three laws of plumbing, right?
I know both Sonny James songs, Texas. He was better than I remembered. Especially liked Apache. Thank you.
Dutchy, thanks for that Benny Goodman song. I can't recall much about Krupa, but I think he got busted for pot. Also, Benny was a great classical performer. Just checked it out. Thanks for keeping WA2K radio on the air.
Remember, y'all, this radio is international and is not mine. I just hope we can get other contributions from other countries.
Breaking news:
Harvey Korman dies at 81
By BOB THOMAS - 5 hours ago
LOS ANGELES (AP) ?- Harvey Korman, the tall, versatile comedian who won four Emmys for his outrageously funny contributions to "The Carol Burnett Show" and played a conniving politician to hilarious effect in "Blazing Saddles," died Thursday. He was 81.
Korman died at UCLA Medical Center after suffering complications from the rupture of an abdominal aortic aneurysm four months ago, his family said. He had undergone several major operations.
"He was a brilliant comedian and a brilliant father," daughter Kate Korman said in a telephone interview with The Associated Press. "He had a very good sense of humor in real life. "
A natural second banana, Korman gained attention on "The Danny Kaye Show," appearing in skits with the star. He joined the show in its second season in 1964 and continued until it was canceled in 1967. That same year he became a cast member in the first season of "The Carol Burnett Show."
A funny one from Harvey, all.
