The world isn’t laughing tonight. Dick Cheney may have looked like death at the end of the debate, barely able to even get up from his chair, but he got up to walk and spout bullshit for another day. The same sadly can’t be said for Rodney Dangerfield who passed away yesterday at the age of 82. Rodney had gone into the hospital for heart surgery in August, but complications, from which he never recovered, put him into a coma.
Caddyshack. and Back to School are my two picks for best Dangerfield films. You also can see him give a fantastic performance in a very ugly role in Natural Born Killers.
See ya later you sad clown, and thanks for making us all laugh over-and-over-and-over again.
First Janet Leigh; now Rodney Dangerfield. I’m scared of who might go next.
UPDATE: Check out Thigh Master’s much better appreciation to the man who never failed to make people laugh.
