Pop Quiz

Okay, this is an easy one — especially since so many of you who read this blog are Okies. Can you identify the person described below?

He was born in Indian Territory, later known as Oklahoma, in 1879. Like most entertainers at the turn-of-the-century, he got his start in vaudeville telling jokes and doing rope tricks. He made fun of the rich in a newspaper column and starred in early movies. He died with famous aviator Wiley Post when their plane crashed in Alaska in 1935.

There is no prize for getting the answer right, other than the satisfaction of knowing that you are “Soooooo” smart.
