I saw her in Vegas when I was young.  She was one of the greats.

I was also lucky enough to see Buddy Hackett, Shecky Greene, Dean Martin, Don Rickles (who targeted and nailed me with a fun barb), Steve Allen, Sammy Davis Jr., and others.  Good times, but they do seem every more distant and foggy.
