But today I retire, so if I do any shooting now, it'll have to be within the confines of my own home. Hopefully, an intruder and not an in-law, like at my bachelor party.'
HE never played an Ovation." |

Location: Winnipeg, Manitoba CANADA | A great Canadian (born February 11, 1926 in Regina, Saskatchewan...) and a very funny guy.
To remain so deadpan and straight faced while doing such OTT comedy showed his true artistry.
He will be sadly missed. |
