Groucho Marx Glasses
Sink Bomb Tricks!

"How'd you get that smudge on your face?"
"Did you know you have a flat tire?"
"What's that on your neck?"
April Fools!

Jokes, pranks, gags and hoaxes abound with Blondie, Henry Aldrich, and Red Skelton. Even Watson gets in on the act when he plays tricks on Sherlock Holmes - but only to take him down a peg, "the ol boy does take himself too seriously."

      Over the years am always ordering or visiting but never leaving word. So...THANKS for all the great product and service. My days are joyously filled with the nostalgia of OTR thanks to you. Its always a pleasure to visit the site and I find my self like a child in a candy store. As long as OTR CAT is around this will be my source for old time radio.
