Hi Herbie, thank you for the reply. You could tell by the way Mr. Cosby was talking that it must have been a true story, even though he was telling it as Dr. Huxtable. It was so sad and poignant, yet he said that he always carries James with him in his heart. I think he must be a very courageous person to survive the loss of his brother and his son and still go on having a productive life.
When I was a little kid my older brother was a big fan of the Cosby comedy albums and I can still remember some of the routines by heart like Noah, the one with the football player doing the shaving cream commercial, and the one with General Custer. I also remember some of the Russell routines but not as well. I recently asked my brother if he still has any of those albums but he said no
Take care,
Becca
