Captain of the Poseidon went down with the ship. :(

Sad day for a Canadian Legend.

I wonder if he ever played guitar?

RIP Leslie

 

[Mor Paul]

Surely he will be missed.

:sad:

May he Rest in Peace. Loved his roles as Drebin and the carzy Dr. in Flying High.
Yes, Max, he will be missed and don't call me Shirley.

 

[The Norwegian Guy]

Rest in peace!

I'm rarely fazed by celebrity deaths (it's not like I actually knew the person anyway; I'm a callous jerk, I know), but this one really does sadden me. RIP Leslie.

I'm taking the day off to watch Airplane and the Naked Gun trilogy...

It's the same old story: boy meets girl, boy loses girl, girl finds boy, boy forgets girl, boy remembers girl, girl dies in a tragic blimp accident

 

[AndyG]

Surely he will be missed.

Yes, he will be missed.
And don't call him Shirley!    :glasses9:

I just want to wish him good luck, we're all counting on him.

Sadly, not only did Leslie Nielson pass away, Irv Kershner passed away today too. Many of you may know him as the director of "The Empire Strikes Back,"  "RoboCop 2"  and "Never Say Never Again."

Hey... he lived down the street from me!  Well not literally.. but not far either.  His favorite thing to do?  Tuesday night BINGO!~ (at the Roman Catholic churches)

I've been trying to rent The Nake Gun all week, but no place around here have it in.  I guess everyone wants to pay homage this week.  :dontknow:

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.

I used to watch all his movies when I was a kid... RIP

And to think... his big break was "Forbidden Planet" .  Who'da known!

I call one of my cats "Nordberg" because of O.J.'s character in The Naked Gun.
