Never understood that either--why electricution was considered by Americans to be a more "humane" way than any other means of execution. Whats so humane about being turned into a piece of toast?

But why are you so interested in Lord Haw Haw?

Hardly the way the upper crust laughed


Lord Hee Haw was Roy.

Taint many here old enough to remember Roy Clark, or the Hew Haw show.

Actually- according to Wiki there was a lesser known American turncoat broadcaster for Nazi's who was briefly known as "Lord Hee Haw". But the public confused the him with Haw Haw.


As a kid, my parents watched Hee Haw, so I had little choice but to watch it, too.

"A woman with no principle draws alot of interest."

That word of wisdom spouted by a guy as a character on the show in the TV promos for it- is about all I remember of it.

We werent regular watchers of it- though I did see promos and hear the Laugh In cast poke fun at it often (the show itsself was a punchline).

I WAS a fan of the Johnny Cash show though. My parents and sis wouldnt be caught dead listening to country music. But I dug Johnny Cash for some reason.

Dolly Parton got her show business start on the Porter Waggoner show.

He supposedly loved her and did not want her to leave the show.

Porter was the original 'Rhinestone Cowboy'.
