Not to mention a major film role with James Bond - and Bambi and Thumper - in “Diamonds Are Forever”. RIP....

Most of my advertising is word of mouth. ;o)

If only Obama had been faster with health mandates... his sausage would have been regulated or outlawed, but he may have lived longer. /s
RIP, Jimmy.

I happen to have a box of his pancake wrapped sausage in the freezer right now. Similar to a corndog as they are on a stick.
Pop one in the micro for 60 sec, add a little syrup and you have a quick breakfast.
RIP
