Tough to Come Down from the Ceiling.

Possibly one of the funniest people to grace god’s green earth has to be Ed Wynn. He was a bridge from Vaudeville to movies to TV and didn't have to go to France to be considered funny. He worked with such notables as W.C. Fields and brought laughter to millions. A precious gift that. His most memorable scene for me was his role as Uncle Albert in “Mary Poppins”. His scene was probably the best in the whole movie, considering we never get a shot of Mary undressed – damn you Walt Disney! He sings the song “I Love to Laugh” which culminates in the kids and Bert all floating along the ceiling in stitches from laughter.

I love to laugh
Loud and long and clear
I love to laugh
It's getting worse ev'ry year

The more I laugh
The more I fill with glee
And the more the glee
The more I'm a merrier me
It's embarrassing!
The more I'm a merrier me!

I had that song running through my noggin all day and thought I would share. Hopefully I will not be consigned to Disney Hell for posting Uncle Albert’s picture. Wonder who is running the place while Brit’s up here?
