R.I.P. Mr Rickles. I grew up on the Album
Hello Dummy! and it's
totally unPC humor, and so did many a classmate including those that went into Law Enforcement. It was picking on everyone
equally, and you became part of the team because of it, you realized you were flawed just like the "XYZ" next to you, and
we were all Americans not some hyphenated BS. IMHO he was the last of the Rat Pack-er's although he was on the periphery of it and not an actual member. Sad day it is.....
I used to listen to a cassette of Hello Dummy in the car during High School.
It is hilarious.
