Timeless humor from The Button-Down Mind of Bob Newhart

[prfesser]

The routine is almost as old as me but is still hilarious. The album reached #1 on the charts at the time. Second album followed immediately. It only hit second place...because the first album was still at #1. He won Grammys for Best New Artist and Best Album.

(I seem to have trouble getting YouTube to post here, showing a clickable preview. Sometimes it does, sometimes it doesn't work for me.)

Bob Newhart is my ninth cousin, twice removed. Funny man.

We saw him back in 2017 at the La Mirada theater...was very funny.

That may be what I've been doing wrong, I don't post it into a media item. Thanks!!

There is nothing wrong with the humor of the past.
