Guest guest Posted February 13, 2008 Report Share Posted February 13, 2008 You know he got extremely sick and threw up before every performance, suffering from one of the most severe levels of stage fright of any performer. But he loved to perform, so just always forced his way throught it. Amazing how many comedians actually do have forms of social anxiety (ny Carson being another example). Actually there are a few athletes who get sick before every game as well but they tend to keep that more hidden. > > Peggy, Thanks for the link to the Pledge by Red Skelton. > I used to really enjoy his humor and his voice made me smile. > -- > > > Z fibriotic NSIP/o5/PA > > > And " mild " PH/10/07 and Reynaud's too!! > > > Potter, reader,carousel lover and MomMom to Darah > > * " I'm gonna be iron like a lion in Zion " Bob Marley*** > Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted February 13, 2008 Report Share Posted February 13, 2008 He also broke quite successfully a cardinal rule of comedian 101 and that is to never laugh at your own joke. Obviously he laughed at all of them. > > > > Peggy, Thanks for the link to the Pledge by Red Skelton. > > I used to really enjoy his humor and his voice made me smile. > > -- > > > > > > Z fibriotic NSIP/o5/PA > > > > > > And " mild " PH/10/07 and Reynaud's too!! > > > > > > Potter, reader,carousel lover and MomMom to Darah > > > > * " I'm gonna be iron like a lion in Zion " Bob Marley*** > > > Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
