Re: Searching for Marx Brothers
August Nelson saw Elvis, then told rec.humor of a vision: >If I'm not mistaken, he was speaking, if in fact he spoke, of the >Hillcrest Country Club, the top Jewish country club in LA/Hollywood. Close, but not quite. Groucho was the first Jew ever invited to join this particular club. Which made his remark more biting than it sounds like to modern ears. Back in those days, there was no such thing as a Jews-only country club. Still isn't, come to think of it. By the time Danny Thomas started golfing at the Hillcrest, they had opened the club up to anyone with the $$ to pay the dues. ================================================================ | how...@chaos.ub.com | | "I have the heart of a little child, and the brain of a genius | | -- and I keep them in a jar under my bed" | ================================================================== | Anatomically Correct Bulletin Board (408) 733-7429[Adults only] | ==================================================================
