HAPPY 100th BIRTHDAY to Dick Van Dyke - a comedy legend

[+ BOZO T CLOWN]

Dick Van Dyke turns 100 years old on December 13th.
How can this site ignore the 100th birthday of someone who has a dyke in their name? 

Dick Van Dyke is truly an American comedy legend. With the recent death of Rose Marie, he is the last living star of the eponymous Dick Van Dyke Show (unless the boy is still alive?), which is objectively one of the greatest situation comedies in the history of television.  He also starred in the long running (8 years?) Diagnosis Murder.
He starred in highly successful movies like Bye Bye Birdie (with the flamboyant Paul Lynde), Chitty Chitty Bang Bang, and Mary Poppins - the movie classic co-starring Julie Andrews.
Van Dyke was the winner of a Tony, Grammy, and numerous Emmy's.

none of which I ever saw other than Shitty Shitty Bang Bang, which was what I came out of the theater singing as a young lad, and which is the only thing I remember about it other than there being some kind of flying car (I think)

I mean, we prefer the company of MEN so why would we be talking about dykes?

Well, he also has dick in his name, so I guess all bases are covered.  Happy Birthday Dickie.

Happy birthday to Dick Van Dyke.  BTW, the kid who played the son was Larry Mathews and he is still alive (and 70 years old).

Well, if you never saw the Dick Van Dyke Show this is your opportunity. If you have the Catchy Comedy Channel, they are running a Dick Van Dyke Show marathon all weekend long to honor Dick's 100th birthday.
And if you never saw Mary Poppins as a kid, shame on you!
