Soupy Sales died on Thursday at the age of 83...........

I posted this without realizing that there was a post on Soupy Sales earlier today...The price of being preoccupied in a poker tournament....So I am closing comments and referring readers to the earlier post which has been given an EP and is on the front page... Which is as it should be....

Thanks bobbot...........

Mr. Rogers and Pee Wee Herman would not have happened if it weren't for this TV pioneer. Anyone who remembers Soupy Sales remebers the "green pieces of paper" episode, as he reminisces here:

I never liked comedy much until recently, so I didn't watch him. He's brilliant.

I grew up on Sales, Rickles, Carson, Gleason, a lot of them are gone. Rickles is still schticking it. I'm glad he lived a long life. My father always loved him.
