Don Rickles is a comedian that I always enjoyed, because he's a fast-hitting equal opportunity ridiculer, and he was best known for his famous roasts of other premier superstars. The amazing thing about the performer sarcastically known as "Mr. Warmth" is that he's still performing and cracking people up after a hall-of-fame career. As I've gotten more familiar with his live comedy style, it becomes obvious how many modern comedians he's impacted, and you got to tip your cap to a legend who made insult comedy the famous and appreciated form of performance that it is today. Do you have a favorite Don Rickles moment or one-liner?
