There's always been something about you that makes my sh!t itch......But let's not worry about that, same could be said of me.

Peter Falk was a good actor, not great, but he was never out of work for his entire working career, and as such he made a better living than many others considered as 'Movie Stars', especially today, when fame is increasingly fleeting.

Columbo, Ironside, Cannon, The Rockford Files, the only one left now is Jimmy Garner, ( him and Donald Pleasence in The Great Escape were superb in their scenes together!) and he's on short time now I guess.

Respect to Mr. Falk, at the end he apparently didn't know how to look after himself, and didn't remember who 'Columbo' was either, such is the vile scourge of Alzheimers Disease.

But regardless of inane remarks from certain 'no marks', i'll always remember him and his old Peugeot, and the signature line "There's just one more thing that's been bothering me" before they send him on his way! R.I.P.
