One of my early jobs i was a waiter... and Rodney came in with a few people. He was laughing really loud and cracking jokes at his table, almost just like the Caddy Shack scene. The owner didn't like it and told me to tell him to keep it down. I was very young and a fan of Rodney. So i told him, "Mr. Dangerfield, please understand that this isn't how i feel, but my boss is telling me to ask you to keep it down." He handed me a $100 bill and said "Thanks. You're a good kid. I respect you for doing your job. Now do ME a favor. Go tell your boss to grow a set of balls and come tell me himself." Then really loud he said towards the kitchen, "Are you KIDDIN me? I'll BUY this popcorn stand and BURN IT TO THE GROUND." Then went right back to telling jokes and laughing. He was so great and the life of the restaurant. He, also, gave me 100% tip on the bill. I tried to tell him he didn't have to do that and he said "What... Now YOU'RE gonna tell me what to do??" Then he laughed and put his arm around me. Telling me again that i was a good kid and to savor my youth (Which i totally understand, now, what he meant). Just wanted to share my memory of what a great night that was. Edit: Due to a comment made, i feel the need to add that Rodney was not a bother to anyone else in the restaurant. All the other people there, that night, were also laughing or blown away that it was Rodney. The owner just didn't like him at all. Like he was looking for a reason to have an issue with him. He was even more pissed that Rodney spoke up, back at him.
@Venger GREAT Rodney story. What I came to realize about Rodney is despite him being a comedy legend, he always stood up for the little guy (not literally little, but regular guys), and it appears he did just that by his response to you...AND he gave you a $100 tip!

Back in the late 80s, I was on a move job from Boston to NYC. I was in the truck with two buddies and during the ride down, I cracked lots of Rodney jokes. Once we get into Manhattan, we're looking at the map trying to figure out where to go. I see a guy on the corner in shorts, loafers, no socks, and a Hawaiian shirt. We have the truck windows down because it's summer, and I yell, "Hey look! It's Rodney!" just kidding around. The guy hears me, turns, and waves and it's HIM!! The guy driving the truck almost crashed. We should have stopped right THERE, but like a bunch of dummies, we didn't. Talked about it all the way back to MA. Great memory!

No! The politicians today still do that. They battle all day, as you said, and then get together for drinks and tell jokes later. They all work for the same official league, as it were. They merely play on different teams. ;)

Plain and simple? Nothing simple about it. If you believe god is the only answer to our dilemma, then ask yourself this. What does he want us to do now? There are people all over the world who have not turned their back on god, struggling to help themselves and their families. They are running out of hope. Are you criticizing people for their despair. There are agnostics and atheists aplenty, calling out for help, for the first time. Plain?

Only one who missed the 1960s & early 1970s could think the 1980s were great. The music flat-out sucked in the 1980s, as did Big Hair & Spandex. Meanwhile, the 60s had MoTown and real Rock n' Roll that lasted until that GD Disco cancer showed up in the mid-70s.
