Dom DeLuise, the jovial comic who enlivened such madcap films as Cannonball Run, Blazing Saddles, and Spaceballs, has died. He was 75.

Often working with Burt Reynolds or Mel Brooks, the bearded, roly-poly actor was known for a sharp, distinctive, almost howling laugh that fills the outtakes reel of Cannonball Run — a testament to the joyous time he had with Reynolds.

He was a great comedian. He and Burt Reynolds cracked me up in their movies.

I loved Cannonball Run. I haven't seen it in years. I might have to break it out and watch it in his memory.
