I feel their pain and wonder, "What the hell were you thinking?" Of course, I don't watch any of the other shows you've mentioned, either.

@Chr...@Judge,<br />You know, you're probably right!<br /><br />@Chris,<br />Yes! I forgot about the Unknown Comic. I think he brought a dog out with a bg over it's head once, too. <br /><br />@Peach Tart,<br />Yes, he was. Then I read that he was really a just a stage hand who used to dance around so they decided to bring him out to perform.<br /><br />@Leesa,<br />It was so fun, wasn't it? I don't remember the $1.98 Beauty Show...<br /><br />@Collette,<br />It's probably showing in India or something.Bobby Allanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17362990178566295070noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-178699992051690921.post-450308442608677722009-09-20T11:20:00.293-04:002009-09-20T11:20:00.293-04:00@Carlos,

I used to date a guy named Gene and one of my friends used to call him Gene Gene the dancing machine.<br /><br />@Laoch,<br />No, but my sister was telling me about that.
