    Don’t try the Rodney Dangerfield program of walking.

    His doctor told him to walk five miles every day.

  5. Here are a few of Dangerfield's delicious one-liners (source en.wikiquote.org/wiki/Rodney_D) —

    • When I was a kid my parents moved a lot, but I always found them
    • I tell ya, my wife's a lousy cook. After dinner, I don't brush my teeth. I count them.
    • Marriage...it's not a word, it's a sentence
    • I met the surgeon general - he offered me a cigarette
    • Why, that's the story of my life -- no respect; I mean, I don't get no respect at all!

  6. Rodney Dangerfield was born Jacob Rodney Cohen in Babylon, Long Island, NY on Nov 22, 1921.

    He had a rough start in a dysfunctional family; he did odd jobs and performed at hotels, without much success.

    His career took off on Sunday, March 5, 1967, when The Ed Sullivan Show needed a last-minute replacement for another act, and Dangerfield became the surprise hit of the show.

    The rest is history.

  7. Let's celebrate the 102nd birthday of Rodney Dangerfield (Nov 22, 1921 – Oct 5, 2004), the comedic genius whose self-deprecating humor can still put one in stitches.

    Let's start with this act on the Tonight Show with Johnny Carson in 1979 (he appeared on the show 35 times) and see if your cheeks or sides don't hurt.

    He was one of a kind!
