On this day, 27-10-1939, John Cleese was born in Weston-Super-Mare, Somerset. I hope you’ll be with us for many more years to come. Happy Birthday, John. John Cleese drinks the Holy Grail Photographer.Holly Gilliam.

😂🤣Nothing beats a genuine, belly-aching laugh with your best friend that leaves you completely out of breath. Watching Laurel and Hardy lose control like this is pure medicine for the soul. It reminds me of those late-night inside jokes where you just can’t stop giggling no matter how hard you try. Tag someone who always knows how to make you laugh this hard. Sometimes we all just need to let go and burst into uncontrollable laughter!

Ollie: Didn't you once tell me that you had an uncle? Stan: Sure I've got an uncle. Why? Ollie: Now we're getting somewhere. Is he living? Stan: No. He fell through a trap door and broke his neck Ollie: Was he building a house? Stanley: 'No, they were hanging him. #LaurelAndHardy

Thank You All For The Messages And Prayers! I Will Get Back To You Each Individually As I Get Stronger. Thank You To All The Tampa General Hospital Staff And Doctors That Put Up With Me Until 4:30am. I Appreciate You All And Thank You For Everything You Did For Me! I Am Focused On My Healing And Recovery Right Now. I Will Be Okay! And Just So You Know For Those Who Were Asking And Wondering, I Don’t Own My Own Facebook Page Anymore. I Apologize For The Reckless Posting Behavior On My Facebook When I Was In The Hospital. It Was Completely Inappropriate!

Buster Keaton, of course.
You can’t say Arnold Schwarzenegger, Sylvester Stallone, Jackie Chan, or Bruce Willis. Who’s the greatest action movie star of all time?

Even atheists are praying for you. You are a good man. Please get well.
I would like to thank all those who have prayed for me in recent days. I wish to express my particular gratitude to the doctors, nurses and all the staff of the Gemelli Hospital. This experience has made me feel particularly close to all those who are living with illness or infirmity. Now that I have overcome this delicate phase I will gradually resume my activities, always with God’s help and your prayers.

At 83, Michael Palin is still exploring “countries on the edge,” from Venezuela to the Philippines. He talks about travel, loss and Monty Python’s unlikely diplomatic power. bloomberg.com/features/2026-…

Today marks 30 years since JUSTUS was released. Yikes! Davy, Mike, Peter and I were all back together, not only making a new Monkees album, but writing the songs, playing the instruments, producing the record, heck, even doing the catering ourselves. For the first time, the four of us were responsible for the whole thing from beginning to end. The title really said it all: JUSTUS. Just us. The record gave us a chance to find out what The Monkees sounded like in 1996 when nobody was handing us a musical blueprint. We could follow our own instincts, revisit a song like “Circle Sky,” and bring in new songs including “Run Away from Life,” “You and I,” and one of my contributions, “Regional Girl." It was great having all four of us back in the studio together, making a record on our own terms. Thirty years on, I’d love to know which JUSTUS track has stayed with you! Let me know below. It's still available on vinyl from our buddies at Friday Music #TheMonkees #MickyDolenz
