I just found out a few days ago that Franken was one of the goofy baggage handlers on the train in "Trading Places". LOL! Cool.

Franklen is such a better actor than Reagan.

Tom Davis, seen here in this vid, was the OTHER bag handler! They were a comedy writing and performing team.

Lol. Don't you just love the 70's?

[Big0725]

I barely remember the 70's! :}

Lol wasn't born until the 80's :-)

He looks like he might be related to Andy Samberg in this video

I for one am very happy to have a Deadhead in the Senate.

[Pol Junkie]

Two actually, don't forget Senator Leahy.

[jonthebru]

Rep Abercrombie though not a Senator is a big Dead fan.

I have a video of Franken and Davis hosting the Dead's New Years Eve show in 1983 on a local Bay Area TV station with Bill Graham and a very high Ken Kesey. I still think of that every time I see Senator Franken today. I wish Ken and Jerry could have seen it too.

Okay, it's got that 70's vibe to it, but ff a few years ahead and Franken finds himself and his comedy niche.
