America’s King of Comedy is 96

The great scholar and civil rights activist W.E.B. DuBois once said “the divine gift of laughter has made the world human and lovable, despite all the pain and wrong.”

I think he would’ve totally loved “Blazing Saddles” or Cloris Leachman’s “Nurse Diesel” in “High Anxiety.

Happy 96th birthday to a man who has lessened pain and righted wrong more than most politicians, Mel Brooks!
