Little Criminals (1977) contained the surprise hit "Short People", which also became a subject of controversy, as Newman's ironic depiction of bigotry aimed at the short was taken literally by some listeners. Both the album and the single stand as the best-selling of his career. In 1978, legislation was introduced to make playing the song on the radio illegal in Maryland, though the bill failed to pass. Newman often pokes fun at the misinterpretation of his song...
Why the tribute? He is still alive!!

Louie Depalmer was Devito's best role! Taxi was a great show.

Yeah. Devito is still going. He just doesn't do as much anymore. I can't wait for his next film, he's one of my favorite actors.
