Even the Wall Street Journal crosswords gave recognition to his most famous character. "This was an honor 'cause it's like the poor kid from Brooklyn hobbnobbin' wit da hoy paloy. If you knew my relationship with money you'd know this is about as close as I get to the Wall Street Journal." - Larry |
