Farewell To The Pieman...Soupy Sales
« on: October 23, 2009, 06:14:11 PM »
Most younger folks won't have a clue, but a great comedian from a far gone era has died. I watched him as a kid and a natural talent for humor was a true gift for Soupy Sales.

Born in North Carolina, he probably holds the record for pies to the face. He got Sinatra good..

RIP Soupy.

Thomas Jefferson: The strongest reason for the people to keep and bear arms is, as a last resort, to protect themselves against the tyranny of government. That is why our masters in Washington are so anxious to disarm us. They are not afraid of criminals. They are afraid of a populace which cannot be subdued by tyrants."
Col. Jeff Cooper.

As a former Detroiter I always had "Lunch with Soupy".  My deepest condolences to Pookey, White Fang and Blacktooth.

As an old detroiter (my dad always said that detroit was a good place to be FROM!..  in Maine now...), fairwell to soupy..  I have the claim to fame of being born in the same hospital (in detroit) on the same day as Soupy's son.. 

wasnt there somthing about a white fang?  kinda remeber that.... 8)
