R.I.P. Don Rickles
https://www.usatoday.com/story/life/...-90/100127122/
The legendary insult comic Don Rickles passed away in his Hollywood home today. No cause of death was given. He recently appeared on The Tonight Show and seemed in good health. Mr. Warmth as he is known appeared on many shows as a guest through the 60s and beyond and even voicing the role of Mr. Potatohead in the Toy Story series. He was one of a kind with his gimmick going so far as to not just be a frequent Tonight Show guest no matter the host but doing his outine for fellow comedians and during the Reagan years politicians. We have lost one of the last Golden Age greats today. He was 90. Edit: His cause of death is reported to be kidney failure.

Man, at this point you might as well say anyone aged 75 or older could die at any time.

Man, at this point you might as well say the sky is blue and grass is green.
