Comedian, actor, author, filmmaker, banjo-playing Steve Martin was born born August 14, 1945.
For some reason, the recording ends about half-way through!

| From Saturday Night Live skit: Toonces The Driving Cat Victoria Jackson and Steve Martin |
During this pandemic, with the resulting political, social, and medical strife, we MUST laugh at the silly things in life.
Steve Martin has always been a 'go-to' for me, for giggles!
Of course, cats are worth laughter every day!

| Manny hooked the pad with his claw, then turned over. He was asleep and cared not for being half-covered. That boy will do anything to make his humans smile! |
We remember Toonces! The video was funny but, for some reason, cut out about half way.
ReplyDeleteThanks for the puzzle!

Yes, I found that it went silent about half-way through, so I've just added a note for others.
DeleteHe's a funny man and I've enjoyed his funny movies. I refuse to listen to the news. I'd rather laugh at fun movies.
ReplyDeleteHave a fabulous day and weekend. ♥
Happy Birthday to the wild n' crazy guy! We always liked his banjo pickin' too!

ReplyDeleteSteve Martin is not only funny, but he's talented in many ways! Planes, Trains, and Automobiles is a favorite movie of ours!
ReplyDeleteOh yes, we enjoyed many of his movies ! Purrs
ReplyDeleteI found out about Toonces through Skeezix!
ReplyDeleteManny is a funny boy.
My husband just sent me a you Tube of Steve martin tap dancing. Wow he has so many talents.
ReplyDeleteWe've always liked Steve Martin. The mom has seen him live in concert and once in person on the Johnny Carson show (remember that??)
ReplyDeleteI so remember Toonces! And Steve Martin of course. I loved SNL back then. No way now.
ReplyDeleteLet's get SMALL!
ReplyDeleteYou'll probably hear from us tomorrow. Mom's got two fans on high aimed at the laptop, which is, along with the rest of us, melting in the heat!
Oh, HAPPY BURTHDAY to a very funny man indeed! Ma loved him on SNL (yes, she is old as dirt)!
ReplyDeleteEveryone needs some giggles, and he is a go-to!
Kisses,
Ruby ♥
You have good taste. he is one of our favorites
ReplyDeleteI like Steve Martin, my favorite of his is Father of the Bride. Thank you for the puzzle. XO
ReplyDeleteOh my word, that Silly Manny Cat is too much! Dad has enjoyed Steve Martin's goofy humor since he first appeared early on. One of his all time faves is the Wild & Crazy guys skit from SNL with Dan Ackroyd, but there's so much more.
ReplyDeleteSometimes I mention Toonces to my husband who of course just thinks I'm crazy ... right now he was walking by and I"m all "Look!! Look!! It's Toonces! Also ... just to show my age ... I have that Steve Martin album ... you know ... "vinyl" LOL
ReplyDeleteSteve Martin is a cat lover, and he's so talented! Who knew he had so much more to give us...his adoring public...AFTER SNL and King Tut! I've read one or two of his books, and during the pandemic, he was airing banjo recitals for all. Thanks for visiting my blog!
DeleteI loved Steve way back when. I think as I got older I stopped watching comedy. Dont know why just did but I still laugh. Especially at the furs
ReplyDeleteMartin's "Roxanne" is excellent, and contains my favourite sight-gag. It's hard to believe he's 75... And Toonces; he can drive, just not very well...
ReplyDeleteAh, Steve Martin is a treasure. And so are kitties!
