Soupy was a real genuine card.

Way back then I did not see the
intelligence the man had as much
as I do now.

Todays comedians can't even touch him
or the likes of Red Skelton, Carol Burnett,
Harvey Korman, Tim Conway........

These lovable comedians kept filth & sex out
of their routines.

Plant trees for life............And, laugh while your at it!! :O )

Plant trees for life.......

Two other men fall into the same genius category as Soupy.

Richard Pryor & Flip Wilson..........Were absolutely natural.
I could not look at Pryor without cracking up.......I loved his
facial expression & body language. Again there was no
filth, sex or even racial this & that in their acts.

All of these comedians were truly down to earth & knew
how to touch our funny bones.

Plant trees for life.....................
