I was doing my thing today, minding my own business. I was thinking, writing, driving kids to swimming pools, hanging out with friends, enjoying the sun and sipping down a few Peronis, when i learned that Jerry Lewis died.

I was in shock.

I have written articles on Jerry here, here, and here. But words aren’t enough to express what I feel. I had to go “live.” Bye Jerry, we will miss you! You were the ultimate American schlemiel! Without you, what would American comedy be?
