Farewell Leslie Nielsen

The world is just little less funnier place today with the loss of Leslie Nielsen at the age of eighty-four.

the man who gave us the timeless gems such as:

Dr. Rumack: Can you fly this plane and land it?
Ted Striker: Surely you can't be serious.
Dr. Rumack: I am serious, and don't call me Shirley

is a great loss to the Vicar household - might just have to arrange a church tribute day and watch the Airplanes in memory of a truly funny man.

Nielsen: What was it we had for dinner tonight?
Elaine Dickinson: Well, we had a choice: steak or fish.
Nielsen: Yes, yes, I remember, I had lasagna.

Timeless humour.

As you say, a great loss to quality comedy films.

Dr. Rumack's first name was "Serious"???
