so at 5am I stagger out of the airport hotel to the smoker-tormenting area, there's just one old guy there, i say "morning sah", he replies "morning", i say "all well sah?", he replies "tolerable", i say "'tolerable', I like that", he cracks a grin and says "you like it? It's yours!" much hilarity ensued.

The "give me a 'martinus'" bit got a huge laugh when it was first performed on Sullivan -- it had so much effect that for a few weeks after, bars all over America had 'martinus' specials. Too bad the joke would go over the heads of most people today which says a lot about the state of education.

Wayne and Shuster (originally Shuster and Wayne) began their homegrown comedy careers while they were at Toronto's Harbord Collegiate (incidentally, my cousin's alma mater) in the 1930s. By the time of their first TV appearances in 1954, they were already established performers, and their comedy series and specials held their own in the ratings against American shows for the next 36 years. Johnny Wayne died of cancer in 1990, aged 72; Frank Shuster died 12 years later, aged 85.

Yeah, this is not the full sketch. The portico joke is funnier if you see and remember the rotunda joke earlier in the sketch. Johnny (Flavius) asks how Cesar died and Frank (Brutus) says, "he was stabbed in the rotunda" whereas Johnny says something like "oh that's a painful place, had a marble splinter there once".

@DardaZiza I remember reading Arthur Hailey's Flight into Danger in Grade 8, back in 1982. The original 1956 CBC teleplay starred James "Scotty" Doohan as a former military pilot who mans an airplane to safety after many passengers and crew develop food poisoning during a flight. A classic CBC moment, back when the CBC produced really good shows on a shoestring (by New York and Hollywood standards). Sadly, the CBC is unwatchable now.
