The Quark In The Road

Bob Hope: Comedy King of the Road

Today’s the birthday of Bob Hope
Whose nose resembled a slalom slope.
The early Road pictures with Crosby are
What made him such a big film star.

Aquinas wired

I'm Jerry Partacz, happily married to my wife Julie for over 40 years. I have four children and eleven grandchildren. I'm enjoying retirement after 38 years of teaching. I now have an opportunity to share my thoughts on many things. I'm an incurable optimist. I also love to solve crossword puzzles and to write light verse. I love to read, to garden, to play the piano, to collect stamps and coins, and to watch "Curb Your Enthusiasm".
