Leslie Nielsen, who made audiences laugh with his ridiculous seriousness and deadpan deliveries in the absurd scenes of comedy films like Airplane! and The Naked Gun has died. He was 84.

I was having some birthday cake and saw this on the news, but that's not important now. Very sad.

 

Rumack: What was it we had for dinner tonight?

Elaine Dickinson: Well, we had a choice of steak or fish.

Rumack: Yes, yes, I remember, I had lasagna.

 

 

My condolences to his family and friends and thanks for the laughs Leslie.

Damn!

 

I really liked "Forbidden Planet", showing the early serious roles he had before switching to the

more wellknown comedy genre.

"Protecting the Queen's safety is a task that is gladly accepted by Police Squad. No matter how silly the idea of having a queen might be to us, as Americans, we must be gracious and considerate hosts." (The Naked Gun) Strange quote for a Canadian...
