That was great Strop...
I've watched a lot of the old Dean Martin Roast segments on You Tube, but I hadn't seen that one...
It's a shame, but he had been suffering from the ravages of Alzheimer's dementia the last couple of years, (it must have come on very quickly with him; I remember an interview he did on Bill O'Reilly's show three or four years ago, and he was sharp and funny) so when death came it was probably for the best for him.
Columbo is very popular in our house; we have most of the shows on DVD. I'm sure that the workingman's Sherlock Holmes will be entertaining millions of people for many many years to come...
Given the sort of decent guy Falk was, (a shame the same thing can't be said for some of his children) I'm sure that would make him very happy. For a man who derived great joy from entertaining others, the pleasure that his iconic character will keep bringing to new generations long after his passing is the most fitting tribute I can imagine for him.

I have a copy of "Wings of Desire" with Peter Falk.
Think I'll slip into the DVD player.
(I wonder what ever happened to that old Peugeot that Columbo used to drive?)

Anyone else here see "Murder by Death"? Not many still kicking (4 by my count) of that classic cast.
