Jackie Gleason

de bene esse: literally, of well-being, morally acceptable but subject to future validation or exception


Today's birthday: Jackie Gleason was known as the barrel-shaped "Great One" who won television fame and riches as a blustering bus driver in "The Honeymooners" and an Oscar nomination for his film portrayal of an aging pool shark in "The Hustler."

And in celebration of Jackie Gleason's birthday, here's a picture of Gleason as Ralph Kramden and Art Carney as Ed Norton in the seminal "The Honeymooners." Photo courtesy of the Disney Channel.
