8. Ah, but he did it just for laughs. |

Dean Martin video half hour sales pitch. Dino was a clown, in the good way, and those roasts were almost always funny as hell (although my mom thought I was too young, at the time, to watch them).
Made me smile.Bob Newhart, Don Rickles and Phyllis Diller were good for a howl.
