This is something totally unexpected. I ran across this video and I thought it was just marvelous! I'm one of those who grew up watching Andy Kaufman on Taxi and learning about his many talents in later years which is a sad state of affairs. It is a fact of life that we do not understand someone nor do they give us the chance to understand them as so plainly told in the biographical movie on Andy Kaufman's life 'Man on the Moon' starring Jim Carrey. I felt it was richly told and you felt Mr. Kaufman's pain when people did not see his full range of talent but only his character 'Latka Gravas' from Taxi.

Sadly, Andy Kaufman was taken from us in May, 1984 it was much too early. He said he was going to fake his own death and come back 20 years later. His friends held a welcome back party
for Andy Kauman in 2004. He didn't show up.
