Are you the bringer of death today, CM?

CoasterMatt · 05-05-2009, 09:36 AM

I feel like death today.

I loved Dom. He is one of my treasured memories of childhood. I hope he's knocking 'em dead up there somewhere. He was a very warm and funny man.

My cheese is very sad

Oh, I used to buy a pickle.
It only used to cost a nickel.
And a busride only used to cost a diiiime.
Those days can be forgotten.
The world has gotten rotten.
Lotsa luck.

Lotsa luck, Dom.

Since pretty much any live action movie he was in was horrible (not because of him necessarily) my fond memories of him are kind of odd. There is (or was, I haven't listened since about 2002) a syndicated home improvement radio call-in show (I forget the name) that Lani and I would frequently end up listening when we were on an early morning Saturday road trip.

For some reason completely unclear to me, they had Dom DeLuise on every week to do a 15 minute COOKING segment. He was very fun to listen to and it helped cleanse the odor of Cannonball Run II.

Dom always did cooking bits on talk shows and such. That's what I knew him as for much as my childhood, the funny fat guy who did cooking bits.

Aw! I loved Dom!

Forgot to post a few days ago, but for fans of Vegas acts, Danny Gans suddenly passed away too - far too young.

Yeah (I got that impression though I'd never seen them), I just found it odd that he was doing it on a show about how to clean driveways or build a back deck.

My Dom story:

I was an extra in a brilliant film called "Baby Geniuses" and I was walking to the set when I hear a commotion behind me. Dom was rushing by with several paper grocery bags filled with food and a big log of bread sticking out. He was with someone laughing and being everything you'd expect. I held the door for them as they rushed by, apparently off to cook for the cast and he wasn't even in the scenes shot.

From Blazing Saddles (1974)
Buddy Bizarre: [yells into the ear of an actor] WRONG!

Buddy Bizarre: Watch me! It's so simple! Give me the playback! Watch me, faggots!

History of the World part 1
Emperor Nero: Here, wash this!

Haunted Honeymoon:
Aunt Kate: Where's Francis Jr.?
Francis Abbot Sr.: I don't know, Kate. He told me he was coming up this afternoon. I thought sure he'd be here in time for dinner.
Aunt Kate: One of my dresses is missing. Has he been at it again?
Francis Abbot Sr.: No!
[stammering]
Francis Abbot Sr.: Uh, n-n-no no I.
Francis Abbot Sr.: [explaining to Vickie] My son does this wonderful impression of Aunt Kate. He's got her voice down to a tee. And well, sometimes he likes to, uh, put on one of Aunt Kate's dresses to entertain at family gatherings.
Vickie Pearle: I see.
Francis Abbot Sr.: [upbeat] Oh, you should have seen him last Christmas. Such fun.
Aunt Kate: [sarcastic] Yes. And when the police dragged him out of the ladies room at Sach's Fifth Avenue, *that* was fun.

Robin Hood: Men in Tights
Sheriff of Rottingham: Don Giovanni, if I may say so, your lizard looks limp.
Don Giovanni: [holding lizard] Yeah, well, when you get to be my age... Oh! My lizard! Oh yeah!
He's dead.
