phonetic punctuation comedy routineIf you know who Victor Borge was, you already know what this video clip is going to be.

If you don’t know who Victor Borge was, you’re in for a treat.

When you think about it, you realize his “Phonetic Punctuation” is a pre-Internet precusor to emoticons….

Yes it was. He was one of a kind. From my earliest memories to the end of his days he brought me so much laughter and joy. I wish he could have remained with us for another 100 years.
Thank you for sharing this gem.

an amazing talent…especially so in that he knew what was funny in so many different languages. he could even make puns with music.

Talents like his come to us perhaps two or three times in a generation. I’m going to find a DVD with his performances. Love it, Dan. Thanks.

Who Owns Whose Words



When you post something on this blog, you retain the right to use your words elsewhere.

I get to use your words elsewhere, too: in a newsletter, book, 3-D hologram, major motion
picture, etc. I'm not saying I will, but it's possible.

But you don't get to take the stuff I write here – even if it's in response to something you
wrote – and use it elsewhere.

Just so you know.

Thanks,
Dan O'Day
