The Dean Martin Celebrity Road, coming to you from the MGM Grand Hotel in the

entertainment capital of the world, Las Vegas, Nevada.

Ladies and gentlemen, from the beautiful Ziegfeld Room, tonight's star -studded

roast has brought together some of the world's greatest entertainers. They've

come from all over the world to be here tonight, here in Las Vegas, in person.

Joining Dean Martin as he honors tonight's very special man of the hour.

Peter Marshall.

With tonight's guests, Vincent Price, Red Button,

Rose Marie, Karen Valentine, Jimmy Walker,

Rip Taylor, Paul Wynn, Joey Bishop,

Jaja Gabor, Orson Welles, Jack, Carter,

Foster Brooks, Ed Bluestone, your roast master, Dean Martin,

and tonight's man of the hour, Peter Marshall.

looking for an emcee for Hollywood Squares, Peter was the perfect choice,

because he's the biggest square in Hollywood.

When he started on that show 11 years ago, he was a poor unknown.

Now he's a rich unknown.

But, in Peter's defense, I must say, his show is very popular.

He spends all of his time hosting Hollywood Squares, and it's driving his

crazy. Every night when Peter is in bed, he turns to his wife and says,

Remember, when you hear the buzzer, the game is over.

Ladies and gentlemen, my good buddy, and he's going to do good, ain't he?

Thank you, Dean.

You're looking good. I haven't seen you in about a year.

Eyes are nice and clear tonight. What are you drinking now, Windex?

What has happened to the roast, Dean?

I remember when we honored guys, we honored guys like Frank Sinatra, Red

Bob Hope. Who are we going to honor the next time, Mr. Whipple?

I'm going to tell facts.

You know, we don't know each other that well. We're friends. We're not that

friendly.

Like many people in show business, I eat out quite often. And in all those years

and in all those restaurants, I take a note to God. I can honestly say not once

did I ever hear anybody say, let's eat fast so we can run home and watch Peter

Marshall.

Once I did hear a guy say, if we eat slow, we could miss Peter Marshall.

I can understand my being here to honor you. We're like in the same category.

Neither one of us is superstars.

But Orson Welles, and I heard he's going to be here to honor you.

I couldn't believe what I heard. And I approached Orson Welles.

And I said, you are here on this roast with Peter Marshall.

And I found out the reason he's here. All his life he has wanted to meet Rip

Taylor.

The proof of the matter.

This is not really a roast or a nun.

This is a sympathy banquet.

And he also, this is what you probably don't know because when you're on

television, there's not too many sex overtones.

This man, it's not conceit.

You know what I mean? It's not like if you think he's a sex symbol.

I mean, you know, and I don't want to destroy an illusion, you know. But I

seen you.

You know, manipulated, right?

I can tell you this from the bottom of my heart. You couldn't get lucky in a

woman's prison with a fistful of pardons.

Ladies and gentlemen, our fellow paisano, Rose.

I'm very, very happy to be here on this rose for Peter Marshall, and I love

being on Hollywood Squares, except for one thing.

I mean, actually, every time I'm on Squares, nobody sees anything but here

right? No, it's just like this, right?

I mean, I could be nude down here and nobody would know anything.

If only that, nobody would care.

That way you'd get a lot more laughs.

No, but actually, I was a little reluctant in coming up here to Las Vegas

because Peter said, you've got to come, Roe. You've just got to come with me.

All expenses paid.

And he was so right, and that's the way it worked out. After I paid his

expenses, I had to... The

one thing that I've got to say about Peter that nobody knows. See how sharp

is? Always dressed so sharp. You always see him looking so sharp with the jacket

and the tie on Hollywood squares.

Right? Over here? Blue jeans and sneakers.

That's all.

Sometimes, if he dresses up, he wears brown and white shoes.

One of each.

Oh, but I love him. And I'm very happy that I came up here to Las Vegas because

the MGM Grand Hotel is absolutely fantastic.

The service here, in case you didn't know, is just beautiful.

They come in and they change the soap twice a day.

While you're using the shower.

And I'll never forget the look on that bellhop's face, like he never saw a

shower cap before.

But actually, I'm up here for several reasons. I'm here, first of all, for

Peter, and secondly, and most importantly, I'm up here looking for a

And I want you to know I gave it my best shot.

Wore my new coat, expensive dress, exotic perfume.

Smell it.

Right? Eighty -five bucks an hour.

And it's called Perhaps Later.

I'd say it's for 85 bucks a house. It should be right now, folks.

Thank you very, very much.

My next guest is that marvelous comedian and actor, Red Button.

You might think that being very short and very red -headed would be a

disadvantage to an actor, not to Red. As a matter of fact, because of the way he

looks, next year Red is starring in his own TV series. It's called Little Fire

Pug on the Prairie.

Ladies and gentlemen, Mr.

Red Button.

Ladies and gentlemen, the Hollywood Squares is one of the biggest hits

television has ever known.

And so it's only fitting to pay tribute to a man whose charm, wit,

charisma, and magnetic personality are responsible for all that

fantastic success.

But enough about Paul Lennon.

to Marshall.

Why? Why are we giving this man a dinner when some of the biggest people

in the history of the world never got a dinner?

The bionic man who said to his wife, what do you mean fix the lamp? I am

the lamp.

The mayor of Hong Kong who said, Can't work today. Have American flu.

Never got a dinner.

Each huck webbing of Israel.

Who said to Anwar Sadat of Egypt, No,

I don't want to join a pyramid club.

May rest, who said to King Kong.

Hey, big boy, would you like to monkey around a little bit?

Never got a dinner.

Henry Kissinger, who said to his travel agent, you heard me, I said Greyhound.

James Cagney, who said to Mickey Marsh, you dirty rat.

Never got a dinner.

Then her.

Who said to his sister, Ben him.

You want to switch?

Oh, Ben him. Who said to Ben her, if I do, I'll be Ben gay.

who said to his brother, Jimmy, can you get me on Hee Haw?

Tell him I've got a dinner.

Our next guest is Jacques Gabor.

Oh, I know it's Zsa Zsa, but it's a long show and we've got to cut out

something, you know.

Zsa Zsa is a career wife.

She made a career out of being a wife.

However, she still has last year's husband. She doesn't know that the 77s

out.

is absolutely true.

I believe in marriage.

I don't like casual affairs. With casual affairs, girls, you have to give back

the diamond.

Also, when a woman is married, she has an insurance.

Every woman should get a piece of the rug and put it in a platinum setting.

I can hug the way I feel to a lot of Hungarian women.

Getting married is a profession.

No, you're using the wrong word. It means business. Profession means

Jocelyn. Darling, when a hungry woman goes after a man, that means business.

But I don't become a man marriages for a living.

Once I was paid $100 ,000 for a book I wrote that was never published.

I know who pays $100 ,000.

That's right, Dean, darling. But you spelled your name wrong on the check.

In fact, I always help my husbands.

One husband who married me became a millionaire.

Yeah, they started out as a billionaire.

There are lots of eligible men these days.

Like Orson Welles, he make a wonderful husband.

He's a great Shakespearean actor.

His Twelfth Night was marvelous.

Yeah, his Twelfth Night was marvelous, but his wife says the first eleven were

nothing.

leave the aisle. Oh, how do all these people get in my room?

This has been a wonderful... I really enjoy having Orson Welles on this show,

boy, because I like to listen to him speak, and I really mean it.

They say that Orson has a voice like fine wine, and that's another reason I

him.

He is the greatest in the whole world, Mr. Orson.

Well...

Thank

you. Thank you, Dave.

I must admit that I find myself fascinated by your voice.

That unique tonal quality that starts in your diaphragm.

Works its way up through the thoracic cavity, onto the larynx, past the uvula,

and finally out of your mouth.

Certainly seems like a long way to travel for a hiccup.

As for you, Peter, I've got to confess that I'm embarrassed.

I fully intended to write my tribute to you last night, but Dean asked me to

have dinner with him and a couple of his friends.

One was a gentleman with a broken nose and a mustache, and the other had a

normal nose and a broken mustache.

After dinner, we had a few drinks, and Dean insisted that we just have one more

for the road, and if you know Dean, his road is U .S. 1 nonstop.

And the gentleman stopped by for a chat, a Mr.

Knuckles from Detroit.

Dean told me he was in the cement shoe business.

And he just decided it was a dilemma.

Either go up, write a glowing tribute to you, or remain there and talk to these

fascinating friends of Dean's.

I found Knuckles perfectly charming, and an hour later I started my room, and

would you believe it?

As I passed by the crap tables, a man grabbed me and said, I looked lucky.

He offered me a $5 chip to stand beside him whenever he rolled the dice, and

there I was in another dilemma.

Go up and write the speech for you, or stand beside some superstitious gambler

for a paltry $5 chip. It's amazing how they stack up when a man is on a hot

roll.

By this time, I was guilt -ridden and was heading for my room when I ran into

Dean again. Actually, I...

Tripped over him.

Dean suggested we go to see the midnight show in the hotel. It was the same old

dilemma, Peter.

Write your tribute.

Or watch 50 semi -nude girls cavorting around a stage. Not an easy decision to

make.

I forced myself to go with Dean.

All this led me to, about an hour later, when I was about to walk into my room,

luckily a maid stopped me and asked me if I'd help her to make the bed.

Peter, it was the big D time again.

Do your tribute or assist a hotel maid in her rather routine labors? Peter, I

can't tell you how proud I was of my hospital corners.

Well, that brings me to this moment. All I have is the title of my speech.

Who is Peter Marshall?

Ladies and gentlemen, Ripley Taylor.

Hello.

Is it on? Oh, good.

Hello.

I don't dance. This is it for me, kids.

I'm Jimmy Carter. Now Dean drinks a new drink with martinis with peanuts in it.

Am I going too fast?

Just a second. I have gifts for everybody this evening. Just a minute.

Oh, you're going to get it. Just stop it.

Dean and I were drinking last night so much he made me the captain six -pack of

the year today.

I got gifts for everybody tonight, gifts for everybody. For Vincent Price, who

played in the motion picture to fly.

Vinnie, your man is open.

For Zsa Zsa Gabor, a drip -dry wedding veil.

Her friends are giving her a surprise wedding.

We all have our hang -ups.

Next thing, please, I'm nervous.

Rosemary looking for a man all the time. Here you are, Rose.

Mickey Rooney's all kidding. Now, wait a second.

I met my ex -wife outside in the lobby. She said she wanted a foreign car. I

bought her a rickshaw and a barracuda.

She said she had a facelift.

Facelift? Whenever she sat down, her mouth snapped shut.

Facelift?

The real reason I'm here is because I want to get back on Hollywood Squares. I

really do.

Now, I can answer all those dumb questions. So here, if you're going to

these to me right now, and I'll give you all the info, then I'll be back on the

show real fast. All right. You ready? Thank you so much. You ready for me to

read? They're written in Braille, so you can see. Go ahead. All right.

Say, Rip, what is yellow and where is a mask?

The lone lemon.

I was just teasing.

Look at all your names.

And I'm going to laugh during acupuncture, for goodness sake.

Yes. What rings the doorbell and then knocks the door in?

An Avon gorilla.

Keep that. This is my life.

Thank you. Third question. Yes, go ahead, quick. Why do women live longer

men? That's easy, because they're not married to women.

because he's a very dear friend of mine and thank you for having me here. This

is King Kong's Q -tip. Thank you very much.

Our next guest is an epicure.

None of you know what that means, you know.

an art critic, and a kind of sewer.

A kind of sewer?

No, a connoisseur.

Mr. Vincent Price.

Thank you, Dean. It's indeed a pleasure for me to be on this desk.

and I hope you all appreciate it.

But it is.

I never knew I had so many inferiors.

What a group.

Completely devoid of culture.

They have no savoir faire, and I doubt if they even have bus fare.

You take Jimmy Walker.

Why, you'd hardly call him a dilettante, really. Just look at him, huh?

Shampoos his hair with woolite.

His measurements are 36, 22, 36, and those are just his lips.

When I agreed to come here tonight, they assured me that I would be amongst my

peers.

Some peers I seem to have wound up down at the docks.

Have you ever seen so many cultural dropouts in your life? I mean, really,

Charlie, I don't think anybody here has any feeling for music, literature, for

Shakespeare. I dare say nobody here can interpret the immortal words to be or

not to be.

I know to be or not to be.

That's somebody trying to make up his mind about a sex change operation.

Any way you decide will be an improvement.

How many of you are acquainted with the deathless poem of Elizabeth Barrett

Browning? How do I love thee? Let me count the ways.

At your age, there ain't too many left, baby.

Why are we honoring

a clod?

Can you tell me?

You know, I mean, who knows nothing about the art of the bubbly, about

champagne? I doubt if he even knows the difference between red wine and white

wine. There's no difference. I fall down from both.

In closing, I'd just like to say one thing, Peter.

One thing. Now that you're a star, you should acquire an appreciation of art,

like me.

I see beauty everywhere. To me, an antique chair is exciting.

A petit point tapestry is thrilling.

A renaissance table makes me quiver with ecstasy.

You must have a crazy mixed -up love life, baby.

Oh,

by the way, Peter, I saw your Las Vegas act, and you definitely have a future in

nightclubs.

Yes, another day or two at the most.

Next young lady, she's the beautiful

actress and television star who won an Emmy on the show Room 2 -2 -2.

Ladies and gentlemen, the darling of Hollywood Squares, Miss Karen Valentine.

Well,

we can tell who the secret square is tonight.

You're lit.

I'm surprised you remember me from room 222.

Oh, yeah, I remember the room. It's the motel I keep forgetting.

I'm really glad you're kidding, because, you know, my mother's watching.

She's been looking forward to this.

But she thought we were honoring E .G. Marshall.

Sorry, Peter.

But she doesn't really like Hollywood Squares.

She thinks it's very, very racy and suggestive.

She's right.

You know, every time I think I've learned the facts of life, Paul Lynn

with another one.

One time he made a crack so terrible, so dirty that Charo blushed.

She turned red and she was speechless for about 10 minutes.

That was a first.

And when the voice came back, it was in perfect English.

We could understand her, but she didn't know what the hell she was talking

about.

And Hollywood Squares is really rough on a girl. Boy, you've got to watch the

guys every minute.

Last week, I kept getting pinched by George Gobel.

And he was sitting two squares away and in another row.

But I have to say, Vincent Price, he is always a gentleman.

He is.

Well, you know, he's done so many horror movies, he just crawls into his box and

lies down.

The real Peter, I do admire you. Thank you. Very much.

Thank you. You know, 11 years on Hollywood Squares, and he never gets

doing the show.

He still comes into the studio two hours early.

to relearn the rules, and to rehearse his ad -libs.

But his famous smile, he doesn't have to rehearse that.

You know, that smile comes from his warmth and his love of life and his

overbite.

And I'm being tactful.

Paul Lynn always calls him Beaver Face.

Hey, you know, we got a new comedian on the dais here, Ed Bluestone.

Ed is what people call a rising star.

And if you want to see a falling star, meet me at the bar after the show.

Ladies and gentlemen, the great, young, funny man, Ed Bluestone!

I was thrilled to be invited here. It's a great privilege to honor Peter

Marshall.

Peter's career began 25 years ago when a high school guidance counselor told him

that the only thing he was capable of doing was playing tic -tac -toe.

Peter's an extraordinary man. He's the only host on television who needs nine

-hosts to make his show amusing.

It was never easy for Peter Marshall. He started out as a singer.

He became known as a guy who sang from the heart, which is very necessary when

you haven't got a voice.

Now those years of struggle are paying off.

In fact, this hotel wants Peter to sing in the lounge.

Now he's waiting to find out if it's the men's or the women's.

We've all been so excited about roasting Peter.

that last night Dean threw a party for everyone.

Dean was so drunk he thought he was Zsa Zsa's first four husbands.

Dean gets like that. There's a famous story about Dean. He was once stopped by

cop while he was driving, and when the cop asked Dean to blow up a balloon,

said, not only will I blow up your balloon, I'll buy you ice cream.

Vincent's always experimenting in the kitchen. I remember once I was working

Florida. I sent Vincent two baby alligators as a gift.

He threw them in a blender and tried to make Gatorade.

Jaja is known for her wonderful acting ability and legendary generosity.

She's been feeding the poor people of Hungary for years.

She keeps sending them her wedding cakes.

And if it weren't for Peter Marshall, we would not be roasting one of the nicest

guys I know. And I'd like to thank Peter for being such a good sport and thank

all of you. Thank you.

Peter, I don't think you've seen this man since he, you know, retired from

The former vice president and the executive who created Hollywood Square.

Ladies and gentlemen, Mr.

Todfin Quigley.

One nice thing about being retired.

Retired. Boy.

One nice thing about being retired. Retired. You've got time for foolishness

like this.

Well, I must admit, Peter, my heart.

Peter.

Peter, my heart.

Our guest tonight.

Has been an entertainer for 30 years.

He's made nightclub appearances.

He's made Broadway shows.

He's made hundreds of TV programs and several housewives who were contestants

his program.

And it's truly remarkable, through all this, his timex is still ticking.

Some of those housewives say that's about the only thing you have to say.

A hit game show must have something for everyone.

Adults. Children.

Degenerate.

Pervert.

And network censored.

Oh, I mentioned them.

In the earth? In the earth?

At the start of

game shows, the prizes weren't anything to shout about.

There were no furs.

No cars. No cars.

No free vacations. The biggest prize we ever gave was a halfway trip around the

world.

That poor woman is still in Bangkok trying to get on a game show.

I just

noticed, you know,

when you smile, you have a very...

Pretty teeth.

Most Hollywood actors have their teeth capped. He has his corked.

I don't know how many of you had the pleasure of missing

Peter's nightclub act.

But I can tell you when he sings, that also is a game.

Off -key so much the audience has to play, name that tune.

All his life, Peter Marshall has loved to play games.

On his honeymoon, his wife had to wear a nightie marked door number three.

But seriously, Peter Marshall is handsome.

He has sex appeal.

And above all, he's honest and everybody loves him.

That's not only my opinion.

It's his, too.

Here's that talented new comedian from the Good Times show. Now, I've seen thin

guys, but he looks like a prematurely born Tootsie Roll.

Ladies and gentlemen, here he is, Freddy Walker.

And

so

Peter got his own game show.

He was Hollywood's most secret square.

He said someday he'd like to switch and be seated in a square.

Then he was reminded they're only reserved for celebrities.

Peter really likes being recognized on the street, though. Fans come right up

him and ask him for Paul Linton's autograph.

Peter is a great host. He always tries to put the celebrities at ease.

Like once, Jar Jar Cabal was having a hard time coming up with an answer.

said, just say the first thing that pops into your mind.

Jar Jar said, I do.

He asked Vincent Price to be on his variety show. Vincent said he was

doing horror shows.

Dr. Spock won't be on the show. He said the show was too childish.

And Henry Block of H &R Block said he had 17 reasons why he wouldn't do the

show.

is the cab driver who often takes Peter to and from his show.

Ladies and gentlemen, Mr. Harry Buttoff.

Glad you see my driving teacher here, Foster Brooke.

I had a choice of driving a cab in Guam or coming here and I had to think about

it.

It's terrific to be here to honor a Ted Mack loser.

I go back to what Peter, when he first started as a singer, he sang at a

veteran's hospital.

He sang for an old soldier for over an hour.

Then he said to him, I hope you get better. The old man said, you too.

Mr. Price, I always feel like you're going to play the organ while the

are burning.

I like to see Forster almost here.

Just because you have red eyes don't mean you're a drunk. You could be a

rabbit.

How can you forget red buttons? They gave me five Indian pennies for a tip.

Look at red hair. Natural, except for the color.

But I love this man.

Sayonara, the man got the Academy Award for that. He had the right idea of

marrying a Japanese girl.

Of course, they're faithful, delicate. Your mother -in -law lives in Tokyo.

Peter, I saw your new show, and I want to tell you something.

Is there no beginning to your talent?

Peter, I want to say something. You're an inspiration to a lot of guys,

especially me. After seeing what you've done with your career for 20 years, I

don't mind driving a cab. Thank you very much.

Well, that's tonight.

A bright young entertainer, whom I'm sure you've all seen many times on the

Hollywood Squares.

His name is Waylon Flower, and he's brought along his crazy

creation, a lady he calls... Madam.

Sit down, sit down, sit down, sit down.

There's my bucket.

Oh,

dear. It's an ice bucket. I hope they didn't leave the ice in it.

Keep my buns warm.

Good evening, everybody. My name is Madam, and I'm an alcoholic.

Oh, zippity -doo -dah, look at this one. Come on, big boy, get it on.

Give me some of that amore you've been promising me all these years.

Adam, you're a doll.

I may be a doll, but I ain't no dummy.

Oh, come on, Tucker, I'm blowing my ear.

Oh, don't hold back, sweetheart.

You know, you could be my last great love.

And the shape he's in, I could be his.

this is the third turkey I've roasted this season.

And it's not even a holiday.

I just realized all the times I've been on Hollywood Squares, it's always been

me sitting in the wine rack.

And you down in that great big chair.

This is the first chance I've ever had to get a close look at you.

And you know what? What? You're just as I thought. What?

Clean cut, honest, and dull.

Friends, I'm the sharpest of Hollywood squares.

The irrepressible Paul Lynde.

I really fussed for you, beaver face.

Thank you, Dean, for the way you're acting up here.

You're going to do something about your drinking.

It's just booze, booze, booze.

It's disgusting.

Can you believe this, ladies and gentlemen? It's not enough that they

these bars and cocktail lounges all over town.

Dean went to a swine flu vaccination clinic because they heard they were

away free shots.

It's a great pleasure for me to be here to honor Peter.

As you know, folks, he and I have been on Hollywood Squares together for a long

time.

I'll tell you how long. When we started working together, Karen Valentine was

still on soft food.

That's why, because of our long association, I'm incensed at the barrage

remarks that have been hurled at Peter this evening.

They've been vicious.

They've been obnoxious.

And they've been hilarious.

I happen to know Peter as a brilliant conversationalist. I was with him at a

very posh party in Beverly Hills.

And I saw Peter go right up to Henry Kissinger and say, How are you, Henry?

And Mr. Kissinger said, I'm fine.

And Peter said, That's right. X gets the square.

When I perform on myself, I just can't stand the way Peter's singing and

have been maligned.

Why, when he sings that Mother McCree, I cry.

It's that... Before I go, Peter, I just want to tell you something.

Everybody's been putting you down tonight, and of course they really don't

it.

I do.

I just returned from Florida after a long run.

He missed the bus.

There he is, ladies and gentlemen.

I love him.

And you're going to love him. Mr. Jack Carter.

Strange how all these game show hosts and announcers all want to be

entertainers. They all want to do variety and sing and dance. Peter, why

you be content with what you are?

Nothing.

Just a lucky usher.

But this is really a weird evening. I think this whole night came from Vincent

Price's wax museum.

Good to see you, Vince. I didn't recognize you. Sitting up after five o

usually you're dead by now.

And Georgia, whom I've been sitting next to all night, hearing things as, What

did he say, darling? I can't hear damn right.

What's going on? I don't know. I think I lost a stone. I don't know.

What a pity that some of the great old MGM stars like Clark Gable couldn't have

been here tonight.

He'd have been marvelous just saying, Yeah, great to be here.

Great to be here with old Tito, my old pally drinking buddy.

Frankly, Scarlett, I don't give a damn.

Not bad. If you were doing Mickey Rooney, that would be nice.

And how about Richard Burton, star of Stage, Screen, and Booze?

Oh, it's somebody paging me.

I can't conceive of a man of your dimension, your intellect, coming to

testimonial dressed in such an ill -fitting tuxedo. You should get a new

This tailor, God, I knew him.

And then, of course, the great Winston Churchill might have enjoyed this

much better than I.

Had he been here to say, Ash, knowing that Peter is an American truly makes

England's finest hour.

And as I look about in this disgusting evening tonight, I can only say one

thing. Never have so many said so much about a man who deserves so little.

A lot of people want to know if that's really the color of Dean's hair. Well,

all I know is the last time Dean went for a swim in the ocean, 50 ,000 tuna

were washed on shore with Grecian formula poisoning.

Vincent, as you know, is a renowned collector. He collects art, he collects

sculpture, and if it weren't for my show, he'd be collecting unemployment.

And many of you wonder why Rose Marie, my lovely friend, Rose Marie doesn't use

her last name.

Well, her parents insisted on it.

And you either hate Paul Lind or you love him. I happen to love him.

Counting Paul, that makes two of us.

Paul's had three television series, and they've all been canceled, which shows

you that the public has taste after all.

Rip is very depressed.

Oh, poor baby. Very depressed. He just got turned down as a regular on Sesame

Street. They said his material was too immature.

We're lucky to have Georgia with us tonight. She's between honeymoons.

And red buttons are still working.

Who says people in show business aren't charitable?

And they say imitation is the sincerest form of flattery.

I don't know if you're aware of this, Jack Carter, but in all of show

there's not one person doing an imitation of you.

And I want to thank Jackie Gale for appearing here this evening.

You know, he received some very, very bad news later, I mean, a little

and he showed up anyway.

You see, they found traces of freshness in his act.

But all in all, being a mental masochist, I really enjoyed this

dear friends on the dais, and Dean, I thank you for one of the fun evenings of

my life. Thank you very much.
