Steve Martin: Why did you kiss my ear?
John Candy: Why are you holding my hand?
Steve Martin: Where's your other hand?
John Candy: Between two pillows...
Steve Martin: Those aren't pillows! :shocked:

Good stuff ...

59 is too young to be kicking the bucket but at least he left more of a legacy than just "plastic shower curtain rings" to remember him by.
