Maybe if you didn't spot him all that cash to buy Slurpees, he would still be with us! Bad joke! I'm sorry to read this. He was THE most loveable comedian there ever was or will be. His voice and persona saw to that. I think I even have a memory or two hatched away of when he appeared on The Tonight Show with Johnny Carson. I wish I could retrieve that file but I get a memory seek error. RIP
He was a funny dude He was in that BIG WHITE GUY group like John Candy John Belushi Sam Kennison Ralphie May Chris Farley He was very subtle and nuanced Did not come off as anything but nice Rocket River
Can we get a power rankings of who's dying instead? Like.. Sagat Meat Loaf L. Anderson Betty White People just like Betty White because she's old, white, nice and not a racist. That's the bar. Oh, you're a non-racist old white? Amazing, anointed.
Had a loose tooth, so my father tied a rope around my tooth, hooked the rope to the back of his pickup truck, and then drove at me. - Louie
