Porky, this is your 3rd thread in a row where I'm the only one to respond.

I remember seeing Leon on some of the early SNL shows and always appreciated his schtick. I think I may even have one of his albums somewhere in the vinyl pile. Sort of lost track over the years though. I think he did a bunch of commercials too?
RIP

Hokey, cornball Americana.
I'm sure Smackie will feature a tribute to him on his next radio, to the appreciation of his listeners. Both of them.

He honed his craft in the land of moose maulings and poutine fires. Suck on that.

You wouldn't joke about that if you'd lived through one. :(

I may have experimented in college...
It's not something I'm very proud of.

Was that guy exclusively a creepy novelty act? Tom Waits piss-take? He makes Weird Al look subtle.

Vaudeville nostalgia is like the Kinks 'Dance Hall' period. If someone admits to liking it, give them a slap and gift them a hockey stick and a Bad Brains album.

I imagine some Leo Redburn song to be playing when Mikey's wife gives the thumbs up for the doctors to yank life support on fatso.

Mikey, if you were trapped in a burning building...
...I would definitely consider calling 911...
...at the nearest convenient time.

Don’t know about up your way, but in civilized parts, you could text 411.

No. Up here in Canada, 411 is the number to report maple syrup thefts.

ATTENTION: MRS. MIKEY
As you probably know, Michael and I were best friends.
If there's anything I could do for you in your moment of profound grieving, please let me know.
I would do anything for the widow of my dearest, most esteemed internet chum.
Anything.

You’re starting to look as desperate as Melty. A lot more creative, I’ll admit, but still just as desperate.

And here I thought he was propositioning my wife.
Sorry I overreacted Marty. Please accept my humble apologies. You are a truly funny guy.
Now, go die in a poutine fire.

Back on topic, did he wind up doing children's records? That's generally the last lifeboat off the Titanic.
