Re: [ARSCLIST] blooper samples?

The record you mention was compiled by Kermit Schaeffer and was called, 
I think, Best Of The Bloopers. These collections were quite popular in 
their time. I think these may have been mail order products advertised 
on UHF stations but my memory may be faulty in this regard. I recall all 
those bloopers too...to my pre-adolescent sensibility these uncensored 
moments were quite hilarious.
