I am responding to the arcticle in the wbmutbb about if Floyd was funnier before his stroke or after??? I think he was funny all the time. He was a great actor, I think he was really funny when the manicurist came to town and wanted to put up a table and do manicures at Floyds barber shop. Anyway I read George Lindseys book (Goober in a nut shell) and he talked about Howard Mcnear, they were friends and that Howard was a great actor and that when he would have a scene all the cast would stand around and watch. The cast would stay around after their scenes were done just to watch Howard perform. George said no one did that for any one else. Just Howard. He said he was worth watching and so funny. George also said that Howard got frustrated some times when he couldnt get the words out and the cast was really patient with him and worked with him. They sound like they were a great family unit!!! That is why we all still love them so much today!!!
