Charlie Chaplin or Buster Keaton?<\/b><\/p>\n<p>To be honest, neither is my cuppa.  I&#8217;m marginally more familiar with Chaplin than Keaton.<\/p>\n<p><b>2. Laurel &#038; Hardy or Abbott &#038; Costello?<\/b><\/p>\n<p>Abbott &#038; Costello.  <\/p>\n<p><b>3. Marx Brothers or Three Stooges?<\/b><\/p>\n<p>Definitely the Marx Bros.  I&#8217;ve never quite understood the appeal of the Stooges, though I can nyuck-nyuck-nyuck with the best of &#8217;em.<\/p>\n<p><b>4. David Letterman or Jay Leno? <\/b><\/p>\n<p>Don&#8217;t watch Late Night TV (at least not those shows).  Give me Steve Allen.<\/p>\n<p><b>5. &#8220;Saturday Night Live&#8221; or &#8220;Mad TV&#8221;?<\/b><\/p>\n<p>Mad TV.  There have been some fine seasons on SNL, but even at their best, every other skit fell flat.<\/p>\n<p><b>6. Adam Sandler (&#8220;Mr. Deeds&#8221;) or Mike Myers (&#8220;Austin Powers&#8221;)?<\/b><\/p>\n<p>Shoot me now.<\/p>\n<p>If forced to pick, Myers.<\/p>\n<p><b>7. Jerry Seinfeld or Ray Romano (&#8220;Everybody Loves Raymond&#8221;)?<\/b><\/p>\n<p>Never watched Raymond.  The few times I&#8217;ve watched Seinfeld I&#8217;ve not been very amused.  Bleah.<\/p>\n<p><b>8. George Carlin or Bill Cosby?<\/b><\/p>\n<p>The early Cosby is hilarious.  He&#8217;s gotten insufferable over the years.  Carlin is just old, but his &#8220;angry humor&#8221; has some fine moments.  I&#8217;ll go for the early Cosby.  If offered tickers for a show today, I&#8217;d go with Carlin.<\/p>\n<p><b>9. &#8220;Monty Python&#8217;s Flying Circus&#8221; or &#8220;Rowan &#038; Martin&#8217;s Laugh-In&#8221;?<\/b><\/p>\n<p>Ni!<\/p>\n<p>No question about it.  MP rocks.<\/p>\n<p><b>10. Gone but not forgotten&#8230;John Belushi or Chris Farley?<\/b><\/p>\n<p>Farley was a second-rate comedian, IMO.  Belushi any day.  Though if we&#8217;re picking folks from that, er, class, I&#8217;d take John Candy.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>And, thus, the Tuesday This or That (Comedy Edition):&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_seopress_titles_title":"","_seopress_titles_desc":"","_seopress_robots_index":"","_seopress_robots_follow":"","_seopress_robots_imageindex":"","_seopress_robots_snippet":"","_seopress_robots_primary_cat":"","_seopress_robots_breadcrumbs":"","_seopress_robots_freeze_modified_date":"","_seopress_robots_custom_modified_date":"","_seopress_robots_canonical":"","_seopress_social_fb_title":"","_seopress_social_fb_desc":"","_seopress_social_fb_img":"","_seopress_social_fb_img_attachment_id":0,"_seopress_social_fb_img_width":0,"_seopress_social_fb_img_height":0,"_seopress_social_twitter_title":"","_seopress_social_twitter_desc":"","_seopress_social_twitter_img":"","_seopress_social_twitter_img_attachment_id":0,"_seopress_social_twitter_img_width":0,"_seopress_social_twitter_img_height":0,"_seopress_redirections_value":"","_seopress_redirections_enabled":"","_seopress_redirections_enabled_regex":"","_seopress_redirections_logged_status":"","_seopress_redirections_param":"","_seopress_redirections_type":0,"_seopress_analysis_target_kw":"","_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":"","jetpack_publicize_message":"","jetpack_publicize_feature_enabled":true,"jetpack_social_post_already_shared":false,"jetpack_social_options":{"image_generator_settings":{"template":"highway","default_image_id":0,"font":"","enabled":false},"version":2}},"categories":[32],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-3156","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-personal-qa"],"jetpack_publicize_connections":[],"jetpack_featured_media_url":"","jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"jetpack-related-posts":[{"id":2931,"url":"https:\/\/hill-kleerup.org\/blog\/2002\/09\/03\/the_names_the_t.html","url_meta":{"origin":3156,"position":0},"title":"The Name&#8217;s the Thing","author":"***Dave","date":"Tue 3-Sep-02 10:14am","format":false,"excerpt":"It's the Tuesday This-or-That....","rel":"","context":"In &quot;Personal Q&amp;A&quot;","block_context":{"text":"Personal Q&amp;A","link":"https:\/\/hill-kleerup.org\/blog\/category\/personal\/personal-qa"},"img":{"alt_text":"","src":"","width":0,"height":0},"classes":[]},{"id":3908,"url":"https:\/\/hill-kleerup.org\/blog\/2003\/03\/11\/tuesday_right.html","url_meta":{"origin":3156,"position":1},"title":"Tuesday, right?","author":"***Dave","date":"Tue 11-Mar-03 3:12pm","format":false,"excerpt":"Which means that This-or-That thing again....","rel":"","context":"In &quot;Personal Q&amp;A&quot;","block_context":{"text":"Personal Q&amp;A","link":"https:\/\/hill-kleerup.org\/blog\/category\/personal\/personal-qa"},"img":{"alt_text":"","src":"","width":0,"height":0},"classes":[]},{"id":386,"url":"https:\/\/hill-kleerup.org\/blog\/2003\/04\/24\/third_base.html","url_meta":{"origin":3156,"position":2},"title":"Third Base","author":"***Dave","date":"Thu 24-Apr-03 3:30pm","format":false,"excerpt":"A bit of Abbot and Costello humor at a press conference where the mayor of Toronto was expressing his outrage over the World Health Organization (WHO) travel quarantine of his...","rel":"","context":"In &quot;Science &amp; Nature&quot;","block_context":{"text":"Science &amp; Nature","link":"https:\/\/hill-kleerup.org\/blog\/category\/science"},"img":{"alt_text":"","src":"","width":0,"height":0},"classes":[]},{"id":50068,"url":"https:\/\/hill-kleerup.org\/blog\/2015\/04\/14\/marvel-myers-briggs.html","url_meta":{"origin":3156,"position":3},"title":"Marvel Myers-Briggs","author":"***Dave","date":"Tue 14-Apr-15 5:47pm","format":false,"excerpt":"Treat this, of course, about the same as you would a horoscope, only with higher consultant fees.
