So was her husband!!!

I’m always hoping to see someone from the family of one of these contestants leave a comment. Ol’ Half Price must be sixty-four by now. I can imagine it would be a kick for him to watch Groucho joking with his parents before he was born.

@@larrytedder3660 Incredible dimples.

Yes and he also had an uncle Julius after whom he was named

​@Kiran , although Uncle Julius Schickler wasn't his uncle yet when Groucho was born and named for him. He was a cousin on their maternal grandmother's side. He became uncle to the Marx Bros by virtue of his subsequent marriage to their mother's sister, their Aunt Hannah.

@@kevinwachs5905 you are saying that Groucho was born and named Julius and it was a coincidence that later his aunt was married to a man called julius,if that is what you are saying ,its not true. In his autobiography " Groucho and me" ,Groucho wrote that there was an uncle called julius( i don't remember on which side),he was unmarried and seemed as rich ,so he was made the godfather of Groucho( so that Groucho would benefit from it sometime) later it was found that he was not at all rich and after he was became godfather he even started living with the marx family,on his death marx received some trivial things of his as he was the sole proprietor.

@Kiran , I am saying that Julius Schickler, the man that Groucho was named after, the man the family called "the General," the man who married Aunt Hannah, was still their cousin when Groucho was born in 1890. He married Aunt Hannah after that date, and by marriage became their uncle.

People in general had a much better sense of humor; able to enjoy jokes even about themselves. Imagine a world without internet, smart phones, cable TV, when people maybe watched tv an hour a day. People learned things by talking to each other; and jokes were a major social currency. People were always telling jokes; you always wanted to know if they had a new joke. But that was inspired by decades of great comedians and joke writers. Humor was one of the joys of living people relied on, that we have certainly lost.

@@JustVinnyMusicI totally agree with your comment. You are well spoken! I was born in 1950 & your comment made me nostalgic for the "good old days!" to

I totally agree the world was a better place back then when we weren’t so addicted to our devices!

Many very famous people were on his show before they were famous and not so famous! Watch them all and see!

ung427 yes I agree he was brilliant

@@lisal8984 I didnt think it was 5 years ago I typed that lol

@@lisal8984 I wonder if she met someone who had aa paper route like her father asked lol

Absolutely. Arrow in the eye etc. Agincourt many hundreds of years later and different bow.

I'm surprised too. I knew the answer.

Gee, I guess Dan Quayle was a really smart guy after all. The fact that there's an obscure older spelling that's *technically* considered still acceptable doesn't mean anything. Go find me a person who would ever spell potato with an "e" in public-- one who wasn't vice president of the United States, that is. I also don't know who this comment is meant to replying to.

More to the point, there is more to the story that too many people conveniently overlook. The incident in question happened when Quayle was in a school judging a spelling bee. He was going by the answer sheet provided by the teacher.

Lois Simmons So the fact that he was reading the answer off a piece of paper means what? It means that he didn't know better than to just read the stupid answer off the page. Of all things for people to feel require a revisionist look, *this* incident? Quayle was a moron, politics completely aside. Find me three people not related to him who disagree.

1) I didn't start the topic. And it was replying to other comments that the YBYL quiz had more than one word with alternate spellings. 2) As has been noted it is an acceptable alternative spelling (or at least was until that day: here is a quote from the Oxford Dictionaries blog by Ammon Shea "The spelling of potatoe, while not terribly common, existed for almost the entire 20th century. For example, the New York Times was still occasionally spelling potato with an -e in 1988. In fact, one can easily find spellings of potatoe all the way up to 15 June of 1992"). 3) If I had been in that position, I wouldn't want to contradict a teacher in front of their (yes, proper use of "their" in the singular) 6th grade class. 4) I enjoy watching your postings of "You Bet Your Life". I don't come here for politics (I get enough of that elsewhere, I assure you) or research Quayle's IQ score and I have no interest in injecting same. But anyone treated grossly unfair pushes my buttons.

Lois Simmons You're saying you don't to discuss it, and I believe you on that point, but I was only responding to your **continuing** the discussion. I don't see why it's relevant in any way whether you **started** it. I was still replying to your comment. I didn't drag you into this thread against your will. And this isn't a political discussion in any way-- it's simply the discussion of a public figure who happened to be a politician. Is it a political discussion to discuss whether Ronald Reagan dyed his hair? Of course it isn't. My use of the phrase "politics completely aside" was a direct statement that I was not discussing Quayle's politics in any way whatsoever. You don't want to discuss it, and neither do I. I wish the original comment here had never been left in the first place. So let's drop it. No hard feelings. Glad you're enjoying the videos.

I think he was setting up a joke before Groucho cut him off.

I thought so too ...

@@kevincramer9235 That was the point of the psychiatrist's ‘diagnosis’ of Groucho, that he had a tendency to interfere when guests were talking in an effort to make quips.

Elsewhere coogan.. So does Sean Hannity.

No..not so

Surely, you jest!

Witty dude, his mind was super sharp...not for thin skinned overly sensitive folks!

@@kinhason46 I agree with you

Psychiatrists are all medical doctors first before specializing in psychiatry.

Who in the hell said anything about it being a sport???

Well, one morning, Groucho shot an elephant in his pajamas...

@@paultheaudaciousbradford6772 and how did the elephant get in his pajamas?

@@Frank00 :-)

Do you have the balls to stand in front of an elephant and try to bring it down with a bow?

You are sick.!! Not funny & neither is your name...🤮😫😩👎
