He was married??? I used to see him on some show with what looked like strippers surrounding him. The guy was a freak, but then again, I guess no man would call him a freak for hiring "girls" to be with him, but he was doing this only a few years ago when I think I last saw him on tv. The guy was certainly a charactor.

The rest of the country missed the entertainment when he ran for Governor of New York a few years back. Definately a 'charactor'.

Very strange, the article says he died at 83, but the news on tv also said he was 95.

Al Lewis...what a character, is right!

He had a restaurant in the village called Grandpas. One night, many moons ago, Maple and I were walking by. He was seated on a stool outside the front door. We said hi to him and he returned the greeting. Then, Maple asked him if he'd sign an autograph. That's when he exploded. He started in this whacked out rant about buying something in the restaurant and how he's not here to sign autographs! And on and on and on! I thought he was hysterical, as it was exactly what I expected from him! Maple, to this day, always prefaces any reference to him with some sort of remark of disdain about that incident...

RIP, ya old whack-job!

It said 95 when I originally posted that. The article has been updated to say that while his birthyear was widely reported as 1910, his son stated he was born in 1923. So there ya have it.

bear, so you would rather die at 83 than 95? Maybe if you double up on the hookers, 83 will be okay:)

Squeeze in as much as you can, wink, wink;)
