Comic Genius Passes Away

Last night around 6pm, Actor/Comedian Dom DeLuise passed away in his sleep. If you haven't seen his work, you really should. Although he hasn't been in the spotlight for a few years, he has contributed immensely to the world of comedy on the big screen as well as on television. He is known best for his work in Fatso, Cannonball Run, Blazing Saddles and as the voice of "Pizza the Hut" in Spaceballs. Here are some clips of his work ...

This is a very sad day for comedy all over the world. Dom is one of my most favorite comedians ever. He always had that subtle wit and few people ever understood. If i had a flag i would lower it to half staff in his memory :(
