The first time I recall seeing Joan Rivers

I first saw her on the Hollywood Squares, hosted by Peter Marshall.

Some of the jabs she traded with Paul Lynde were priceless!

Definitely one of a kind.

Joan Rivers' Pure Grit!

Very nice J.R. Tribute. Didn't always agree with Joan's politics nor humor, but this amazing gal always gave it her all!

You know you're old when:

"The other day I went shopping and bought some sexy underwear for myself.
The clerk immediately gift-wrapped them."
