#4 - Buster Keaton and Groucho Marx books; some more OTR, a Chaplin reading

Finally got #4 done!

I talk about Buster Keaton: Tempest in a Flat by Edward M. Pherson and Groucho: a Photographic Journey by Arthur Marx. I mention the upcoming book by Harpo Marx's son Bill named Son of Harpo Marx Speaks. Angie talks a little more about her Modern Times DVD, I talk about Abbott & Costello, particularly the Chaplin/Costello connection. From #2, we continue to talk about old time radio a little more. After Angie loses her phone connection I talk about Victor Borge and read a little from Chaplin's autobiography, My Autobiography. Remember to vote for us on Digg.com!
