Honestly, I had not thought about Harvey Korman, of the Carol Burnett Show, for years until I read that he just died at age 81. I spent many happy hours at home watching the funny skits of the Carol Burnett Show on television. 

The world was a simpler place then. This evening I watched a few of their skits on Youtube, and warm waves of memory washed over me… a kind of longing for that world that seemed safer and warmer…

Although I did not think Harvey was as funny as Tim Conway or Carol Burnett or even Vickie Lawrence, I did enjoy him stifling his laughter week after week as he performed next to these very funny people. Here is one of my favorite clips.
