I need a break: Martin and Lewis Drop the F-Bomb.

Hey pallies,  likes now quite a while back, ilovedinomartin visited at the blog "Clarence Oddbody" (the angel character from "It's A Wonderful Life) where the blogger, our  pallie Mr. Charles Cairns, published some wonderful Dino-memories of his bro Tom and himself as youngens  watchin' Dino and Jerry  flicks at night on a portable 12" Black and White TV set between their beds.

ilovedinomartin knows that if a pallie has posted some Dino-devotion, there likely will be more Dino-gold to be mined from said blog.  And, when we searched Mr. Cairns cool blog, indeed we found 'nother great Dino-honorin' post.  In Charles post, " I need a break: Martin and Lewis Drop the F-Bomb,"  Cairns highlights that great great audio clip of our great man and his sidekick tryin' to made a promo for their flick "The Caddy" when they crack thin's up and use some colorful language in the process.

 It's a audio clip that has been shared a number of times here at ilovedinomartin, but certainly time to shares it 'gain, likes 'specially in honor of the anniversary of the birthday of our great great man's great great partner in comedy, Mr. Jerry Lewis.  Likes this clip superbly shows how how much our Dino and Jerry loved bein' together and the fantastic fun they had, even doin' bloopers for a promo of "The Caddy."

In addition to "The Caddy" clip, Charles posted 'nother audio clip, "Dean and Jerry Fake Argument," when among other fun thin's our smooth smooth man and his funny guy talk 'bout Jerry tryin' to get his tonsils out, but only gettin' 'em stretched.  Likes never ever heard this sketch before, and ilovedinomartin 'grees with our new pallie that this skit "narrowly skirts some of the subtle cruelty that gets you asking 'is this a little real?' "
Gotta 'fess up that we particularly loves our Dino's crack ups in this audio clip.

ilovedinomartin expresses our deepest of deep Dino-appreciato to our Dino-diggin' pallie Mr. Charles Cairns for sharin' these marvelous Dino-moments with his readership and showin' such amazin' devotion to our King of Cool.  To checks this out in it's original format, simply clicks on the tag of this here Dino-report.  Dino-always, ever, and only, DMP

I need a break: Martin and Lewis Drop the F-Bomb.

(Originally posted July 1, 2011; minor edits.)

A little levity from one of my favorite comedy duos.

Brother Tom and I used to stay up late and watch old Martin and Lewis movies on the Late Late Late Show, keeping our laughter down to muffled giggles so Dad wouldn’t yell upstairs for us to go to knock it off and go to sleep.

Dean and Jerry Fake Argument
In this clip, Dean and Jerry have a fake argument; very funny, but IMHO narrowly skirts some of the subtle cruelty that gets you asking "is this a little real?" Some homo-erotica insinuation that was (and is still) common among male duo acts.
