t age 90, Don Rickles has zero plans of slowing down.

“Honestly, I didn’t realize it — all of a sudden I was 90,” said the comedian on his 60-plus-year career to Closer Weekly. “The years skipped by quickly. When it happened, I said, ‘Where did the time go?’”

His best buddy, Bob Newhart, is still up and about too!

For you other night owls, "Newhart" plays late night on Antenna TV. Always an enjoyable show, likeable cast and no PC crap to speak of. And the Henry Mancini theme music is nice- I keep on humming or whistling it! But the only place I've seen Rickles lately is on some old roasts.

I absolutely remember that. I was watching that night and Carson said "what happened to my cigarette box?" Some folks in the audience yelled out "Don Rickles." Carson did look pissed!
