Red Skelton's Pledge of Allegiance


Joe Shmoe

Recommended Posts

I've reposted that a couple of times on FaceBook. Red was not only very funny but also a very wise, generous, and classy guy. I think I saw him at the Indiana State Fair as a small child and then at football homecoming in college as a sophomore. Knew all the punchlines and still laughed my butt off.

Muscian and composer, too. Not a lotta people know that... "Red's White and Blue March." Great band tune I played in high school and college.

Just thinking about him tucking his hands under his arms and saying "There's these two seagulls, see? Gladys and Gertrude..." brings a smile and a tear. Good night, and God bless, Red...
