It was an odd comedy act. He's appear on stage with hair askew and in a ratty tuxedo. Professor Corey was billed as the world's foremost authority on everything. Corey didn't have a memorable catch phrase or a signature joke. He's wander around stage aimlessly and ramble on a series of funny, often hilarious thoughts.
Professor Corey was a fixture on the old Mike Douglas Show, back when it was based in Philadelphia. He was always a scream. He was always a favorite.
Professor Irwin Corey died last week. He was 102. The course was laughter, and I'm happy I took his class.
