Thank you very much.
Thank you.
Did you all get the free prime rib?
Good.
Our next guest is a very funny and strange, peculiar man
who first played Las Vegas way back in 1963.
Oh, yeah!
Yep, he has starred on TV's $1.98 beauty concert.
Ladies and gentlemen, please welcome Rip Taylor.
Thank you.
It's that damn joke, too.
You think this coat's a little busy?
Like Liberace threw up on the damn thing.
Anyway, good evening.
Please laugh, folks.
I just had my damn tubes tied this evening.
I laughed when you came in, G.
For the children now, Captain Six-Packs in town.
They're blind on that side, G.
Hope a dog in heat falls in love with your shin.
That'll wake you up.
Look at this, the odd couple.
Can you see in the back?
Hello?
Never seen dead people sitting up.
Gee.
Wait just a second.
I got the danger.
Notice the glove?
Michael Jackson.
I'm using his shampoo.
Head and smolders.
Can you see this?
It's a shoehorn.
It's a shoehorn.
Folks, I don't dance.
This is it, you see.
Put on the morgue and toe-tag yourselves.
Gee.
Look at this.
Palm Springs.
Palm Springs!
Tell this side.
I know it's funny.
Look at this.
Pantyhose.
Pantyhose!
14 bucks for that piece of crap, too.
I'm getting nervous.
I got a tinkle.
What the hell is this?
Uh-huh.
Blazing saddles.
That was a fast horse out of town.
Gee.
I got money to gamble.
I'm going to smack him in a minute.
Spring chicken.
Spring chicken.
Folks, I heard Orson.
What's the name?
Oral Roberts almost died.
The check bounced.
Shut this up.
Look at this.
Look at this.
Ha-ha.
Cups and saucers.
Takes time.
I know what you're saying.
I know what you're saying.
This lady here, I found these in the hall.
She hear it.
Miss.
Let miss.
Keen up.
Miss.
You notice the ring?
My mother-in-law died.
Left me $12,000 to get her a stone.
She would have loved this.
We buried her face down.
Let her dig her way out.
Now, back to this one.
I want to thank you very much.
Here's the last joke.
Now, okay, just a second.
Here's a booby trap.
A booby trap.
That's it, Paul.
Thank you.
Nice to see you.
How are you?
Griffin Taylor, ladies and gentlemen.
I know.
Thank you, Dave.
How you doing?
Thanks for being on the show.
Thank you very much.
You're a very busy man.
Spent a lot of your time writing old material.
Thank you very much.
Yeah, but I had money to gamble with it for it.
Thank you very much.
What's new?
What's coming up for you?
I know Sugar Babies.
Landing City at Harris for 10 weeks with Carol Lawrence.
When did that begin?
The end of June.
Civic Light Opera, Long Beach.
And I got Rips Rugs, Taylor Made.
I just took a lot of things.
Really?
Actual wigs you're selling?
Didn't you know it?
The man is bald, Dave.
No, I would never.
You first, lady.
You take it off.
RIP Taylor, ladies and gentlemen.
Thank you very much.
You took your place.
Thank you, Dave.
Thank you very much.
Show this.
Show this.
Taylor.
Taylor.
Thank you.
