    Carl Reiner past away today at 98.

    If you dont know of him, please take a moment to look at some of his more notable achievements
    and performances. His Partnership with Mel Brooks is Legendary, his contribution to the beginnings of Television,
    as well as his humanitarianism.
    Condolences to his family and friends.....he was one of a kind.

    Please share the work he did, that made you laugh.

    I did not know him personally, but his father and my grandfather worked together, to my knowledge, on his
    first patented watch cleaning machine in 1927-29. Carls father Irving was a watchmaker too.
    They both were immigrants from the Same region in Europe, and arrived
    in NY at close to the same time. Vaudeville reigned, and even humor today, is taken from those timeless years.
