So sad. :(
Somehow its always that much more sad when someone who makes us laugh dies...

Rest in peace Rodney, you'll get the respect you deserve now...

How did that happen?  :\'(


Howard

He slipped into a coma after having heart surgery.
We have lost another funny comedian and legendary performer. He will be missed---a whole lot. :\'( :\'( :\'(
How did that happen?  :\'(

I LOVED this guy! He STOLE "Caddyshack" and I loved all his jokes....Yeah, sex at my house is SO bad, we put the mirror over the Dogs bed! ;D RIP Rodney :\'(

Poor guy. I just heard about it (actually, saw a headline on the net). He was just a few months younger than my grandma. (She's still alive, though.)

Dangerfield was a comic archetype, the underdog.  No one will ever be able to top his act!  You know, he quit showbiz as a young man and went off to run a paint store for years.  Then he vied for a comeback...in his fifties.  That takes b*lls of steel.  He also helped a lot of the comedians we know and love today get national exposure in his HBO specials, including Roseanne, Jerry Seinfeld, and Andrew Dice Clay.
Dangerfields health was in crisis 25 years ago, but through strict diet and lifestyle regimens, he managed to pull through and achieve his greatest successes in film and television in the '80s and '90s.
We'll miss you, Rodney!

  Aw, man...:\'(

  Incredible comic....May he finally get respect...

I was shocked when I heard this.  I knew he had surgery and was in a coma, I just didn't think he would die.  R.I.P. Rodney, you will be greatly missed.

I can't say that I was surprised when I heard this because of the health issues he has had in the last few months. But now he being paid respect. I must admit that I have stole a line from him that he used in "Back to School" only, I change it a bit. "My wife is so conceited that during sex she screams out her own name".  I change "my wife" to "whoever" (sometimes my ex).


R.I.P. Rodney and yes, you are respected.

May God rest his soul.

RIP Rodney, I always loved Rodney, he was a great comedian and made a lot of people laugh. I remember he was on Leno just a few months ago and he didn't look very good. I had a feeling that he wasn't going to last much longer.

Rest in peace Rodney...by the way he always got my respect. What a funny guy he was.

RIP Rodney! :\'(

Hope everyone got a chance to see his video "Rappin Rodney". (1984)

Like I always say,they always go in 3's.Rodney Dangerfield,Janet Leigh and now Joyce Jillson who passed away yesterday at age 58 from kidney failure and diabetes. :\'(

Yes, it's sad to see him go. Still, at 82, he did alright for himself.

Rest in peace, Rodney.  :)

Joke of the Day - October 7, 2004


I tell ya when I fly, I don't get no respect. I took one of those cheap flights, no frills. I finished eatin' and had to do the dishes. 



This is one of his jokes. ;D


Howard

I do not give too many celebrity deaths more than a passing thought.

In Rodney's case I make a big exception  :(

I think there is some of him that most of us would like to be  :)

September  1


I saw my psychiatrist. I told him, "Doc, I keep thinking I'm a dog." He told me to get off his couch.

Here is another joke to get you laughing. ;D
