LESLIE NIELSEN PASSED ON

One of the funniest people of our time, LESLIE NIELSEN, has passed on.

Nielsen appeared in over 230 movies & television shows, including FORBIDDEN PLANET, MASH (tv), THE UNTOUCHABLES, THE MOD SQUAD, THE MANHUNTER, GUNSMOKE, BONANZA, WILD WILD WEST, THE FUGITIVE, and ALFRED HITCHCOCK HOUR/PRESENTS.

But I will forever remember him from my Childhood watching reruns of POLICE SQUAD and nearly peeing my pants with laughter at his AIRPLANE! and NAKED GUN work.

Thank you for all the many many laughs, Mr. Nielsen. Rest in Peace.

Give this man a toast, Naked Gun and Airplane! never lose their laughs. Looks like tonight will see nake Gun and The Empire Strikes Back grace my screen. Two greats gone.
