After seeing the documentary Moms Mabley I can't stop thinking of that hysterically funny line that Dick Cavett quoted: "Bein' married to that old man was like tryin' to push a car up a hill. With a rope." I'll be sitting in traffic or waiting in an elevator and it'll pop into my overactive brain and the LOLs come a-screeching out, uncontrollably. Too dang funny... Always liked Moms, ever since I saw her on Ed Sullivan when I was a kid. Her style of humour was so fresh and new, and her look was so unlike any other comics that she instantly stood out.
