One of the benefits of our writing our blog is that it keeps us in the loop with our customers, most of whom share some common interests, notwithstanding menswear and bow ties primarily. They also share a similar taste in art, literature, cinema and comedy. It is therefore a privilege to get an email from one customer in Idaho the other day who had enjoyed my Don Rickles post and suggested that I ought to watch Foster Brooks reduce Don Rickles to tears. I then on-sent that to a comedian in Miami, another customer, who said that he and his wife were in fits of laughter watching said video - as I was too.
I don't imagine that in my formative years when I kept pen pals that we ever had such a quick and effortless way of communally appreciating anything in the same manner. My old letters would start with 'Dear so and so, it has been some time since I last wrote you and my life has taken some funny turns since then. In April I ....' blah blah blah.
Anyway, I hope you are amused by this superlative roast from Foster Brooks who manages to get the master of roasting to lose it himself.
