Heard this today on the radio. Seems like the offspring of one of the funniest comedy teams of the 60’s (or maybe for all time!) has decided to pursue a porn film carreer. Well, at least he won’t have to change his name, will he? :D:D:D And if you take the first three words of my subject without the comma, it could be a headline in a porn newsletter. Okay, I’ll leave! D&R 😃 Quasi ---

I read the CNN news story about him. Seems like he was always desperate to make it in showbiz and after so many years of not making it he found his way in. Although it does sound like he enjoys it. Well, he’s not an [unhandsome](http://news.yahoo.com/news?tmpl=story2&u=/030311/170/3hi70.html&e=2&ncid=996) man. ---
