What a shame!

One of the guys I grew up listening and laughing to, and still do on occasion, has died after having troubles recently with his heart. Best known for his gags involving the line "I dont get no respect!", he has been in and out of the entertainment/comedy industry since he was 19. Countless appearances on the Tonight Show, SNL, Johnny Carson and numerous movies such as National Lampoon's Caddyshack , Adam Sandler's 'Little Nicky' plus a standout role in Oliver Stone's Natural Born Killers have endeared the, some would say ugly, bug-eyed funny man to many. Myself included.

He will be surely missed.

RIP Rodney.

My favorite "guest apperance" of his is when he voiced Mister Burn's son on The Simpsons... He was a funny guy!

Yeah That was a pretty good one! I forgot mention it...
It's nice to think he was doing great work for a little over 60 years! What a trooper!

Hey, sorry for ditching you so early at the RE the other night. I hope you had a good time with Jimmy and the others.
