Yes, Marty Feldman.  He died way too young.

@Cyber Liberty

I agree,but any age is too young to die for someone that brought so much laughter to so many people.

AOC - She's Got Marty Feldman Eyes


If a political party does not have its foundation in the determination to advance a cause that is right and that is moral, then it is not a political party; it is merely a conspiracy to seize power.

-Dwight Eisenhower-


"The [U.S.] Constitution is a limitation on the government, not on private individuals ... it does not prescribe the conduct of private individuals, only the conduct of the government ... it is not a charter for government power, but a charter of the citizen's protection against the government."

@Smokin Joe


I loved the HELL out of that British comedian (Marty Feldman?) with  the goofy eyes that was the Mad Doctor's assistant.

Couldn't even look at him smiling without cracking up.
Feldman was great! His facial expressions are the stuff of legend--Heck they ALL were great, and that's what made the movie. Even more, however, it was the tightest of all Mel Brooks' movies, imho, and had the best ending. It joins the ranks of a very few movies I have seen multiple times and can still enjoy yet again. Not many make it past being seen the fourth or fifth time before I'm surfing for something else to watch, and I have seen Young Frankenstein at least a dozen times.

Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience.

Yes, but Feldman was a comic actor, not a national tragedy.

My last experience with a red head?  (circa 1978). 

"If you even threaten to break up with me, I'll bite it off"

Made a beleiver out of me.
Hey!

The two most pleasant experiences I can ever say I've had with women were redheads, though one was not a natural redhead.

But then again, I'm already a little touched in the head, so maybe were were kindred spirits.

Great movie. I think it is hyper-thyroidism that causes the eyes.

If, as anti-Covid-vaxxers claim, https://www.poynter.org/fact-checking/2021/robert-f-kennedy-jr-said-the-covid-19-vaccine-is-the-deadliest-vaccine-ever-made-thats-not-true/ , https://gospelnewsnetwork.org/2021/11/23/covid-shots-are-the-deadliest-vaccines-in-medical-history/ , The Vaccine is deadly, where in the US have Pfizer and Moderna hidden the millions of bodies of those who died of "vaccine injury"? Is reality a Big Pharma Shill?

Millions now living should have died. Anti-Covid-Vaxxer ghouls hardest hit.

It’s a house for cows, and I do like cows. But seriously, we wished to move to a farm, or a cabin in the woods. Both away from people.

Thank you @sneakypete ❤️

Yeah,that I can understand. My house is the only house on an island,and my closest neighbor is over a mile away. Anytime I want to shoot one of my large caliber rifles,all I have to do is walk out into my yard and fire away. There is no one to complain,and if someone did,it wouldn't take but an instant for me to set them straight. Pretty much everybody knows I don't "play well" with people that try to get hostile with me,and since I go out of my way to not bother anyone else,I live a pretty peaceful life.

Nobody can build around me,either. Environmental regulations and wild life restrictions. I am grandfathered,so I am legal and have nothing to worry about.

I even have a state-maintained dirt/gravel  road and a bridge to drive over.
