Don Rickles – April 6th, 2017

I’m a huge fan of Don Rickles. Have been since I was a wee child. Got to see him a number of times live and will always be mesmerized by his improvisational abilities to link so many pieces and parts for such a long time. Just brilliant.
For some reason i ran Rickles clips last night while working. Looking forward, at the time, to his birthday, two days before mine. That won’t happen now, but, thankfully, so much of his work is still available to us today and forever.
I rarely, knowingly, missed a Rickles appearance on television. Surely I, at 11 years old, settled in for laughs during this Johnny Carson piece in 1974. Only to be bleary eyed in school the next morning. But caring the memories of laughter.
