02 Jul 03 - 08:26 AM (#975081) Subject: Obit: Buddy Hackett - RIP From: Fiolar Sadly another of the Hollywood family has gone. Buddy Hacket, actor and comedian passed away this week. Born in August 1924, he became one of the great stand-up comedians. He also had roles in such films as "Walking My Baby Back Home" (1953); "God's Little Acre" (1958) as well as portraying Lou Costello in the 1978 TV movie "Bud and Lou." The world is a bit sadder for his loss. |

Always. He was the best flat-out joke-teller I've ever come across. I think Johnny Carson said something to that effect, too. |

She says that he might want to give the "Japanese Whore" a try. He asks what she does but can't get a straight answer. However, the Madam assures him it is different. He goes into the room and the girl is gorgeous to say the least and dressed in traditional Japanese garb, a beautiful kimono. He asks her what she can do for him but soon realizes that her English is very poor and every time she says something he tends to answer, "Uh....What?" Finally she says in her very broken English, "Sir me think you want Woks Job. Well he can't figure what cooking has to do with sex exactly, but this is progress and he agrees that he wants a Woks Job. Slowly she removes his clothing and bathes him from head to foot and he really digs it! Then she brings out another tray from behind the Oriental screen and again prepares a small bowl of scented water and lovingly begins to wash his genitals again. She takes a fan and with slow strokes allows the light breeze to dry them. The guy had never experienced anything like this before and was really getting into it!!! She then had him stand next to the table while she took some fine, soft, and lovely silk and wrapped his cock and balls. She brought out a Teak board, put it on the table, and placed his "wrapped package" on it, tying it gently in place. She stroked the silk until his dick was as hard as a diamond and he was about to have a huge orgasm. At this point she quickly placed another Teak board on top of the other with his genitalia in between and then grabbed a 10 pound sledge from behind the screen. Before the guy could even think about jumping away, she gave a mighty swing and smashed his dick and nuts between the two boards.......and the wax shot out of his ears. Thank you Buddy for all the great laughs and for all the many kindnesses you did but often kept most secret. I will miss you. Spaw |

02 Jul 03 - 01:21 PM (#975278) Subject: RE: Obit: Buddy Hackett - RIP From: Bill D absolutely! He was a master at timing and 'constructing' a joke for maximum impact. He never shortened or hurried a joke.....I have used him as an example for years when I treid to show people why their jokes sometimes seemed lame or flat. He was the first one I ever heard tell the joke about the man with the new hearing aid bragging to a friend (he told this on the Tonight Show years ago) A man meets a friend who has always been hard of hearing, and the guy is beaming! "Joe," he says, "I have the greatest news! You know how my deafness has always been such a problem? Well, no more! I finally got a GREAT new hearing aid! It cost me a fortune, but it is fantastic. It has opened up a whole new world for me. I am a new man!" "Wow!", says Joe,"That's great Mike! What kind is it?" Mike glances at his watch.."Oh, about 3:30...why?" ...and watching Buddy Hackett DO this made it twice as funny. |

I just watched it last night. Mr. Hackett should have done more movies. He was one great character actor. Rest in Peace. |

04 Jul 03 - 05:33 AM (#976513) Subject: RE: Obit: Buddy Hackett - RIP From: gnu Absolutely the finest joke teller ever. I've never seen anyone so foul-mouthed who could make everyone laugh in spite of it, even those truly offended by the language and the subject matter. The voice, the mannerisms... the man was a show all alone. RIP. |

04 Jul 03 - 11:32 PM (#977081) Subject: RE: Obit: Buddy Hackett - RIP From: Mickey191 The beautiful blonde with the biggest breasts sidles up to a fellow sitting at a bar. She rubs her body against his as she sits down. He looks at her and orders her a drink, she tells him she'll spend the night with him, and would do Anything he wants if he can put it into 3 words. He says, "Anything?" she says anything! He says, "Paint my House." He was a joy! Always remember his telling (on Carson's Show) about helping his Dad upholster a lot of furniture for a big Catskill hotel. When the job was finished, the hotel reneged on the agreed on price. They needed the money badly-but it was not forthcoming. He was about 15 at the time. He shed tears as he told the story to Johnny. He vowed to his Dad that one day he would make the hotel owners sorry. He became successful, and was asked to play that hotel. Same people still owned it. He held them up for double his normal fee. "That was for my Dad." The Chinese waiter bit-that was hilarious.Bye Buddy. |
