    That's my Aunt Eveyln. Her and my Uncle Danny used to show me this as a reel to reel projector. When she watched me as a baby, used to put me in the cage with Tonya the tiglan. Thanks for posting this video.

    Tom was the easy leader of the disqualifications. He must have really gotten around and known a lot of people. Malachy McCourt would become a semi-famous person. Bud is a professional at what he did.

    I disqualified myself because I recognized Malachi McCourt, brother of Frank, who often appeared on the NYC Merv Griffin show "from the Little Theater off Times Sq." in the mid sixties.

    • @519djw6
      @519djw6 7 років тому +3

      That's interesting! I knew that Malachi McCourt had made himself locally well-known as a "professional Irishman" on TV in New York. But I had always thought that *Frank* McCourt had remained an unknown until the publication of his first book, the wonderful and bestselling "Angela's Ashes."

    • @Rodin99
      @Rodin99 7 років тому

      I think you're right. McCourt you probably know taught English at Stuyvesant. I don't remember Frank ever appearing on TV with his brother. Griffin was very good about having local NYC eccentrics and personalities and comics on his NYC show. And of varying ethnicities.

      I've been watching a lot of these videos in the last 4 days and I noticed at voting time Polly will say as an example: "I picked #1 but I think it's #3 and I'm probably wrong so it's probably #2" just about every game. Seems confused or really takes it to heart if she guesses wrong. Nice lady and was attractive, but something's not right.

      Polly Bergman is merely playing a role!! She is an intelligent and quite normal. Throughout her years of being on this program she was frequently gone. During those times she was working on stage and on TV. She was always much in demand and never connected to any
      “On something” scandal. She always plays this”role” on this show. She was/is highly love for it!

      @Mark Richardson Marky, do you always attempt to insult someone you happen to disagree with ? What a sad way to go through life. Try forming an intelligent response on occasion, if that's possible. Now take a deep breath and move on.

    • @Walterwhiterocks
      @Walterwhiterocks 4 роки тому

      @Mark Richardson To borrow from Ronald Reagan's response to Carter in that infamous debate in 1980, there you go again. Yet another failed attempt at an insult. You are simply not very good at it, though, "butthurt little twerp"" is original, I suppose. BTW the large majority of my comments are positive "on the internet" proving you have either never read them or are being untruthful. Anyway, have at it. Your insult attempts (feeble as they may be) are a riot and laugh provoking. Thanks for the free entertainment.

    Round #1:
    I didn't know that lions and tigers could crossbreed, and couldn't quite make out the name of such a hybrid animal. Aside from that, I'd like to know whether such crossbred animals could reproduce themselves--unlike a burro, the result of a horse crossbreeding with a donkey..

    • @519djw6
      @519djw6 7 років тому

      Thank you for this information! I was always confused about the distinction between a burro and a mule, as we use both terms in English. Also, it's my understanding that mules are sterile. That's why I was wondering about the situation regarding "ligers" and "tiglons." And of course, I knew that tigers are indigenous to Asia, and lions to Africa. That said, I'd still like to know whether either of these hybrids can breed--either with each other, or with tigers or lions, even in captivity.
