This Video Nugget hails from Febru­ary, 1988 (Just a
hic­cup over 20 years old), and is as Dark and Iron­ic
as you could ask for...Mor­ton Downey, Jr. hu­mourous­ly
con­tem­plates his own death with rep­re­sen­ta­tives of
The Amer­i­can Cry­on­ics So­ci­ety, in­clud­ing Ger­ald
Arthus, who want­ed his head re­moved and frozen
up­on his death (which may, or may not have ac­tu­al­ly
hap­pened by now), Philip Kirschn­er, of the Al­cor
Life Ex­ten­sion Group (who has now out­lived both
Ger­ald and Mort, The Best Re­venge...), but like­ly
most amus­ing of all, it is Ed­die Gunz's TV De­but,
LONG be­fore "Ring­side High­lights", as I was part
of the stu­dio au­di­ence on this "Chilly" Febru­ary Night.
This Video Clip nev­er fails to send me in­to help­less
parox­ysms of laugh­ter, and my doc­tors have asked
that I not watch it EV­ER again, so en­joy...In ret­ro­spect,
per­haps Mr. Downey should have lis­tened more close­ly...He might be shar­ing a stain­less steel tank
and liq­uid ni­tro­gen with Base­ball Great Ted Williams...
