In my youth we saw the Telethon, went to the Drive In with a shopping bag full of bacon popcorn to watch his movies, and as an adult, studied his comedy and his shortcomings.
I spent a glorious afternoon with Myron Cohen and his hilarious wife. He detested Lewis.
I guess he had his faults, but his comedy entertained me greatly and his passion for MDA inspired me. Such is life.
Shame more don't know about him. By far the best "storyteller" comedian, ever.
