He was known as the King Of Insults. He was quick with the lip and made you laugh as he poked you. The Dean Martin Roast wasn't a roast without Don. He was fast with a comeback and you never had time to duck. However, there was one time, I know of, when he was the one that got poked. Don was doing his thing and said. "It takes many years to become a great comedian." "It sure does." Dean Martin said. "And you haven't even reached that year yet." That broke Don up. Don's comedy wasn't always understood. One time he got a bad reaction from some in the audience. "There's no booing here." he responded. Don may have had a dangerous tongue in public, but he was a sweetheart in private. In fact his best friend's wife thought he was nice and had to be warn that he was completely different when doing his act. Don Rickles died recently. I have to say he will be missed and thank God for recordings. RIP, Don.

died, fun guy, Jerry Doyle, missed, passionate, pilot, rest in peace, sixty, talk show host
Jerry Doyle died Wednesday the 27th just eleven days after he turned sixty. He was one of the cast members of T V show Babylon 5. He ran for congress, was a stockbroker and a pilot. For the last ten or twelve years he was a radio talk show host. From what I've heard he was a fun guy and a great friend. He was always one for a laugh. He was an open person. He was real and passionate.When you listen to someone like that almost everyday they become a part of your life. He will be missed. Rest in peace, Jerry.

Hello, Hello
I know I haven't written for a while. You probably thought I died or eloped or something. No. I just been to the moon. Sorry I haven't been in touch, but there is no internet on the moon. No, really. No internet. The moon is a place to quietly think about life and appreciate air. Well, I'm back. I know you're relieved.
