Latka out of Taxi. He was an American comedian in the 70's, who pulled off the ultimate Elvis impression and proclaimed himself the worldd women's wrestling champion. Died of cancer and then REM wrote Man on the Moon about him.

"Died" is a little harsh isn't it?

Well they buried him..........so I hope he died.

ONE WOULD THINK IF U FAKED IT YOU WOULD KNOW
DON'T YOU THINK
FAKED WHAT?

Dear KING,

My name is Mark and I,m from Scotland I am an a fan of Kauffman. Are you full of **** ? If not send me some proof!

The proof is in the fact that this has nothing to do with you.

I believe Andy K. was a funny comedian & whether he really is dead or not, Our opinion on that goes like this.

Do you remember the Twilight Zone episode...

Twilight Zone: "The Rip Van Winkle Caper"
Season 2, Episode 24
First aired: April 21, 1961

Written by Rod Serling

A clever scientist along with a ring of thieves steal gold in the mid 1960's and with the help of a "Sleeping Gas", they go to sleep for 100 years. When they awaken they all kill each other through greed. At the very end we learn that gold in the future is manufactured and is now worthless.

______________

If Andy was to re-appear he would find out the throngs of *people who found him amusing etc...etc...will look at him with fond memories of the past...NOT what a brilliant/genius Hoaxer he is/was.

Just like the gold in the story in the Twilight Zone, His Greater performances will be overshadowed by his cheapest performance...Latka Gravich in Taxi.

Sad,

M&S

(* Who are dying everyday.)

BTW We know what "KING" means:

K-Kaufman
I-Is
N-not
G-Gone

"WHO'S ANDY KAUFMAN"??????? This is like asking "Who is Jesus"!!! You young Brits ain't up to speed! No crumpets for YOU!!!

Oh stop.

Next thing you'll be asking us to believe that they put a man on the moon.

Nathan McCoy died of cancer on May 16, 1984 and is buried in New York.

Dr. McCoy died June 11, 1999, was cremated, and scattered at sea. Now he's food for the fishes.

Cal-el

Yep, and Scotty's ashes are scheduled to launch any time now from a rocket site about forty five miles from where I sit.

Cover your head just in case the urn blows up.
