Don Rickles, one of the funniest human beings to live, has passed on at age 90 from kidney failure. Thanks for all the laughs. :cry:

The best acting he did was, in my opinion, on The Andy Griffith Show (1965) when he portrayed a traveling salesman plagued with bad luck. He played it with humor and some unexpected pathos.

He also had demonstrated he could do drama, when he appeared in Casino, as one of DeNiro's underlings.
