i like your post very much.you are talent and inteligent man.i want to follow you
A very enlightening blog @adsactly I learned a lot about Billy Connolly which gave me a better appreciation for his unique personality and outlook on life. I get the impression that his quotes are lighthearted attempts at de-cluttering life's complexities........none more so, than the last one you included. i.e., "It's as if I'm being prepared for something. Some other adventure, which is over the hill. But I've got all this stuff to lose first."
I sincerely hope Billy unravels some of the more profound mysteries of life which await us all........over the hill.
Yeah, I think you're right, particularly about the last one. a lighthearted attempt of understanding what's happening. Glad my post helped you learn a bit more about Billy :D
It's always enlightening to understand what makes a person think the way they do. Too often we restrict ourselves to focusing on only one dimension of the skill of performers or artists and not take the time to delve into their humanity. You did a great job with this blog @honeydue. Thank you again. 💐
Aww I love Billy, probably one of my top 10 comedians. And he was brilliant in The Boondock Saints.
Ha I know, right? He's brilliant. I loved him in The Boondock Saints :)) Pretty much anywhere really, no matter how seemingly insignificant the part, he always seems to bring something unique to the picture.
LOL. I've enjoyed the quotes you've made from Billy Connolly's jokes. Another comedy star I didn't know, but now I have a reference thanks to you. I like that in spite of the tragedies or the sorrows he may have experienced, he has assumed a positive and noble attitude with those who gave him the back. That's very noble. I feel that his life and his way of taking it on is very inspiring. I'm really going to look for him to know more about him. Thank you, @honey
Yeah, I like that about him, too :) I remember crying when I read about his childhood because he is just such a genuinely fun and good person, you know? Glad this post introduced you to him!
@adsactly Hey such a nice and informative post!!!! Really interesting!!!!
Keep up the good work!!!!
Wish you luck =)
Keep going✌

Thanks to your gratifying post, @honeydue, I can meet another important contemporary comedian. From what you say, he had a hard life, but he had the strength and lucidity to face it. It can be noticed that he is endowed with a fine and sharp humour, nothing easy and common. All the jokes I quote are very good, particularly for me that of shoes and the brevity of life. I incorporate it to my background of first class comedians.
Yes, he's really a remarkable guy. Glad you learned more about him through my post :D
@honeydue, Some people travel journey which holds lot of issues and questions but one thing is for sure, Comedy is great tool of expression of truth with the essence of humour. If anyone wants to express big issues without any conflict then in my opinion best way is comedy. Stay blessed.

This is hilarious
I knew little about this comedian. Thanks for sharing him with us.
I think that it is always a good thing to include bio details. They provide a useful backgorund to undertand the artist or where his work may come from.
This is really funny. And that's the magic of humor. It brings to our attention things we may not even think about, but which once we start thinking about because of a joke we can't get out of our heads easily
I agree, though I don't like to focus on the biographical details too much, particularly when they're less than pleasant, you know? I don't want it to sound mean or gossipy in any way, I don't want it to even seem that's what Billy is about, as he is so much more.
I'm glad you learned more about Billy through this post!
Hahaha an intelligent mood.
I watched a video about the difference between man and woman.
Just great.
Thank you @honeydue for making this versatile actor known.
Thank you @adsactly for supporting the comedy genre
Oh yes, that one is great :D I'm happy this introduced you to him.
Like many funny people, he was the survivor of an extremely harsh, difficult childhood.
Sadly, I am unable to understand much of The Crucifixion, but the prostate bit is hilarious!
It's as if I'm being prepared for something. Some other adventure, which is over the hill. But I've got all this stuff to lose first.
Awesome person!
I am loving this series on comics.
