All of these years have passed, and Johnny Carson still sets the standard. Spontaniously funny, the best moments were the f ups, and Johnny would give the audience that look, and there was laughter in bedrooms from coast to coast. What better gift could a man give to us , than laughter after a hard days work .R.I.P. Johnny.

"Have you ever read any books?" Good Lord, Johnny was so spontaneously funny.

Honest humor.
