Dick Van Dyke never fails to make me smile....

A neat little clip from "The Middle" with Dick and Jerry.

He hops around pretty good for a feller pushing 90.

Okay. That settles it. I'm going to start taking dance lessons again. Damn can that man move! At his age, it's pratically a miracle!

Still a handsome dude! It makes me so happy that he still has plenty of get-up-and-dance.

I saw some documentary about the Dick Van Dyke Show. It said that the script would sometimes just have bits in it like "Dick does something funny (45 seconds)."

That's what I imagine the script for this music video looked like.

Still one of the greatest physical comedians ever.
