One Last Pie In The Face for White Fang and Black Tooth

[filkertom]

Great sadness. Comedian Soupy Sales has passed away at the age of 83. Either you don't know who he was or why he was funny, or you absolutely do.

What are your favorite kinds of pie? Nothing beats a good apple for me, but peach can also be lovely.

Okay, I added lots of water (well, broth) to my poverty stew, so now I can have soup for lunch. A couple of DVDs will have to watched later, one an A&E Biography of Soupy another of a 'Best of' clips, both home-made transfers from VHS tapes to DVDs.

Alas, there was no video tape around in 1953, or not yet viable for local stations, so no video of Soupy's shows here in Detroit. A few stills show some of him on set, and I think I seen a home movie, made public a few years ago, taken by crew or a visitor of the WXYZ set.

Rest in Pies Peace Milton Supman. Best comfort to his family and friends.
