    "Hey Good Lookin', We'll Be Back To Pick You Up Later!"

    Has this been posted already? I'm surprised I didn't see it here. Those iconic commercials are seared into my childhood memories.

      This guy was like furniture. He was just part of the house. And that's exactly what he wanted!

      Great article, too!

          I couldn’t stand him and his informercials back in the day. But over time, he became part of nostalgia. So in that respect, I’m actually saddened of his passing.
