Ian, I am pretty advanced in years. I am 69. I can remember a comedian
whose name escapes me. He got paid good money for coming on stage and
talking just like Szczepan. I think it would be a gas for him to
address a
large gathering of amateur radio operators. He could have us all in
stitches in a few seconds.

Hello Michael. From where I am sitting, 69 isn't all that old. I have
friends heading for 90 who are definitely not showing their age.
Was the comedian a Brit named Stanley Unwin or an American named Fred
???
73, Ian.

I just can't remember Ian.

Michael

Pretty sure you are talking about Professor Irwin Corey "The World's
Foremost Authority".

He's 95 and still working - I'd hurry if you want him...

Brett

Yes Brett, it came back to me. It is so good to know he was an engineer.
YES professor Irwin Corey. Szczepan needs to polish up his act a little to
match the professor. He is just not quite there. I suspect he never will
be. However, he is still funny, just not as funny as the professor. God,
95 and still working, bless his heart.

Michael

Hello chaps.
Michael - thank you for the link to Irwin Corey. I've not heard of him at
all so I will spend some time watching the videos on his web site.
Best wishes to all for a good weekend. If you're coming to the UK for the
Olympics then I suggest some decent waterproof clothing.

73 Ian.
