Dean's guest list always included great comedians. George Burns, Jackie Mason, Flip Wilson, Rowan and Martin, Foster Brooks, Dom Deluise, Guy Marks, you name it. The comic I remember best was a little short guy named Jackie Vernon. His dry sense of humor was hilarious. He would go on and on, one of his funniest lines was "they named a lake after him in Wisconson, called "Lake Stupid." Don't know why, it's stuck in my mind after all of these years. It was a treat to watch Dean "adlib" with the best. Dean always got big laughs when they wandered "off script."
