Cryptoquote Solved – 11/22/22 (55?)

Bob Hope's Secret Dark Past Revealed In Tell-All Book - YouTube

I grew up with six brothers.  That’s how I learned to dance – waiting for the bathroom.”   —   Bob Hope

(Bob Hope was an American icon!  Yes, I know he was born in England, but he moved to the States when he was five years old, so that makes him an American, in my book.  A funny comedic actor and nearly constant entertainer of our U.S. fighting forces, via the USO.  He loved the USA, and somehow he was able to make it to the ripe old age of 100.  Be well and do good, friends.)   —   YUR

(Even though he was born in London, England . . . who was more American than Bob Hope?!?!  He made 57 tours for the USO, entertaining American troops, over the years.  His family came through Ellis Island when he was 5 years old.  He hosted the Oscars 19 times!  He starred in numerous movies and television specials.  And he was invited to the White House on numerous occasions.  He lived a few months past his 100th birthday!  A great American.  Be well and do good, friends.)   —   YUR

(It’s been a while since we’ve had a Bob Hope quote!  I saw him just recently in the ABC\ESPN – part 1 – documentary on O.J. Simpson, on Saturday.  He was such a constant for a big part of my life.  Great deadpan humor!  Be well and do good, friends.)   —   YUR

(I love Old Ski Nose, and I have a certain appreciation for the sport, but when it comes to the subject of golf I generally side more with Mark Twain and George Carlin!) YUR

(Who’s the new Bob Hope, when it comes to entertaining our troops?  Is it Gene Simmons?  Or, is it some Country singer?  Hmm!  If you want to see a good movie rent “Green Zone“, with Matt Damon!)   — YUR
