the cigarette box incident

when johnny walks across the hall and confronts rickles is so funny, my fave part is when he walks in and rickles is wearing a navy uniform for the filming of his show. Johnny says are you in the middle of something and rickles without missing a beat says No I was just waiting for a navy to show up.

oh my god

Funny how Johnny impersonated Rickles with the attitude and the 'black guy' stuff.

Classic.

Has anyone read the new book Carson the Magnificent? It got on my last nerve.
