Rest in peace, Don. Thank you so much for all of the laughs. Sympathies to his family and friends.
One of the funniest things I ever saw was when Rickles was guest-hosting for Carson. He was messing with a little box on the desk that Carson had gotten as a gift, and broke it. When Carson found out, he dragged a camera crew on to the set of C.P.O. Sharkey, Rickles show at the time. Needless to say, hilarity ensued. It was so funny that I was crying.
Where’s the next Rickles, to insult the crap out of the hockey pucks masquerading as snowflakes?
Here’s the CPO Sharkey incident: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Mj2S2n64DeQ
