Dick Shawn as Sylvester...but for me personally..the crowning glory of IAMMMMW..was the appearance of the Firemen played by the 3 Stooges..they did it so well...stony faced serious and totally inept at the same time.

I like Milton Berle saying it's "like free money" and Jonathan Winters saying "You still gotta declare it!"

And the banana peel.

Back in the 80's my company (firehouse) worked deep in the "hood". We were dispatched on a medical rescue call a few blocks away. When we single filed into the lady's living room she turned around and saw us and said --- "AWWWW NAWWW!!! NOT the Fire Department!!! Y'all don't know nuthin!!! Y'all ain't NEVER knowed nuthin!!! I needs somebody in here that KNOWS sumpthin!!!" She was a smart lady. :)

I think my favourite scene is when Jonathan Winters destroys the petrol station manned by the two wimps...Buddy Hackett and the guy who was choo choo in Top Cat.
Followed closely by Winters a Sylvester digging up the loot... "youre in my space man"..im deffo watching it tonight..
 
My wife and I took the train from Syracuse to New York City on Wednesday (my 72nd birthday). We usually make the trip once or twice a year. Last time was November 2019. We scaled back our travels due to the pandemic.
We always stay near Times Square and the Theatre district. We go to a Broadway show and a few restaurants we like. We love the energy of the city. It's a nice escape for us.
I always bring a slip joint along, and carry it when I feel I can, which is most everywhere.
Just a few pics, since without them it didn't happen. ;)
We always try and get to the Oyster Bar and Restaurant at Grand Central Station. Best Bloody Marys in the city and the Seafood Pan Roast is a favorite of mine. Boker Club was along on this trip.

Happy Birthday Gary! Looks like a great time. 😊👍
 
A shame one of our hard-working mods can't go away to celebrate his birthday, without an outbreak of modern knives appearing in the forum :rolleyes: This place isn't the sleepy place it once was, and while there's an increase in posters, there isn't an increase in folks reading the sub-forum guidelines. Those folks have an excuse I think, but there are established members posting knives, which they KNOW break the guidelines here, and are just trying it on. And why are members hitting the 'Like' button on posts which very clearly break the guidelines? How about we make things here a bit easier for Gary and Frank, this is a nice place to hang out, with just a few simple rules? Why make extra work for the fellers that do a thankless job enforcing them?

I get Newbies posting a modern knife, they don't know any better and just need to be informed.
I don't get established members doing it, it's disrespectful to the whole community... there are other places to post them.
And you're right, established members hitting the "like" button for offending knives is a head-scratcher.
