3. That clip made me relevant to my millennial daughter.

They said there was a bar where you could throw axes at the targets. And I goggled that clip. It wasn’t just ed Ames that she learned about, but also Johnny Carson. He was really very smooth, with his humor and jabs.

4. I worked with Ed Ames in a theatre in Branson...

Kind of embarrassed to admit I lived in the Branson, MO area and helped manage a theatre for a while. Ed had a short running show teamed with Carol Lawrence (of West Side Story on Broadway). He was a nice and funny guy, he had his giant poodle with him and was a lot of fun...We hawked his cds together after the show....Weird but glad I met him...

5. That clip is known as "Frontier Bris."

One of the funniest ever.
