Edgar Bergen quotes
Funny, nothing ever happens nowadays.
After 13 years of life on the half shell in Hollywood, I have made a trip where I wasn't a tourist.
After a sabbatical from radio for nearly a year, I needed to work with Charlie again. Ventriloquism is not like riding a bicycle. I have to keep practicing or Charlie would sit tounge-tied, silently staring at me with the chill eye of a department store dummy.
But Charlie, Charlie, how can we ever really know anything? Charlie, what or who is God?
Charlie, what is nature of life?
Charlie, where is the soul?
Hey kid, do you want to come and talk to Charlie?

To think that this was once Happy Valley.
