Letters: Don Rickles

The following is a letter that I wrote several years ago to Don. He promptly replied with an autographed 8x10 glossy headshot with the inscription "Hello Tim Best, Don Rickles".


Mr. Rickles,

I am a huge fan of yours. I believe your brand of humor to be some of the funniest out there and sadly a waning breed. I was wondering if you could find it in your insult laden heart to send me an autographed picture, or at least a response telling me to kiss off. Either way I would be indebted to you immensely.

I thank you in advance for your troubles and hope to cross paths with you in Vegas sometime. Keep on doin’ what your doin’, you’re great.

Sincerely,

W. J. DeBalt
