Grizzard

[Jolly]

Never did find the Betty Sue Loudermilk story for Brenda, but I did run across a few Lewis Grizzard quotes which some may find amusing...

*The only way that I could figure they could improve upon Coca-Cola, one of life's most delightful elixirs, which studies prove will heal the sick and occasionally raise the dead, is to put bourbon in it.*

It's better to have died a small child than to be a politician who gets caught in a scandal during a slow news month.

*I came from a big family. As a matter of fact, I never got to sleep alone until I was married.*

There's nothing inherently dirty about sex, but if you try real hard and use your imagination you can overcome that.

  *Baptists never make love standing up. They're afraid someone might see them and think they're dancing. *

Grizzard is always a hoot.

Man died waaay too young. Most of his books are very good.

Guy had to be able to write, to run a section of a major newspaper in his twenties (back when newspapers were newspapers)
