It's remarkable these days how people who retire are able to reinvent themselves and find new careers.  Like the Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade had two new floats this year -- Larry King and Regis Philbin.

The Food and Drug Administration is being careful to use the $600 million Congress gave them to expose Big Tobacco wisely.  So far, they've pointed out that Joe Camel isn't cool.  In fact, he's not even a camel -- he's a dromedary.

In "The Descendants," now playing in theaters, George Clooney is a member of one of Hawaii's richest family.  In fact, they're so rich they don't even have a regular doorbell.  When someone comes to the door, Don Ho opens it and sings "Tiny Bubbles."  

World Physicists have added three new elements to the Periodic Table which join elements like carbon and aluminum. One of the new ones is even harder than a diamond.  Kobe Bryant has already had a ring for his wife made out of it.

BOB HOPE'S 1983 U.S. COLLEGE CAMPUS TOUR: Your Alma Mater Here?


"Having spent twenty years writing for the indefatigable Bob Hope, and traveling all over the world, Bob Mills is well qualified to salute the famous corps of gag men who kept the comedian knee-deep in jokes. These first-hand recollections summon up the final phase of Hope’s career—and the end of the trail for an entire brand of show business."

WakiLeaks: History Declassified 2000 (Vol. One) is now available on Kindle for $2.99

Compiled from Bob's newsletter "Funnyside Up" published in 2000. This is a yuck and chuckle-filled stroll down memory lane to a time before the Bush administration had inflicted its damage -- a time before the search for WMDs and Osama bin Laden. See what we were laughing at back then, who was in the news and who had yet to enter rehab -- which NFL stars had yet to do time in the Gray Bar Hotel.
