+Fates 63 Posted November 29, 2010 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. http://www.people.com/people/article/0,,20445526,00.html Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

+Erik 1,812 Posted November 29, 2010 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.

Capitaine Vengeur 263 Posted November 29, 2010 "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... RIP, Mr Nielsen.
