Did that rhino just order a drink?

Oh. I feel sad. This has been going for four hours, so I probably won't get a response, and you probably won't see this. But I wanted to say thank you, so very much. I'm in my 30s now. When I was a kid, you and Mark Lynn-Baker brought my family together. When Perfect Strangers came on, we all jumped on the couch, parents teens and single digits like me. We sang "Sometimes the world looks perfect, nothing can be arranged..." (I still remember all the words). We watched you jump on the wagon and laughed at U.S.A. or Burst. We watched you and Cousin Larry in the mailroom at the paper, meeting Carl Lewis, the flooded basement....years after my brother had moved thousands of miles away and my dad had passed away, I bought my mom Perfect Strangers on DVD as a present for some holiday. It meant the world to her. You meant so much to us. When I did really well at something, in school or whatever, for years my mom and I did the Dance of Joy. Di, di, di, di, di-di, di-di-di-di, hey! hey! hey! hey! hey! hey! LEAP. Anyway, as Balki you were not just a part of my life -- you were a wonderful part of it, and Perfect Strangers was and is a wonderful moment and memory of happiness as a family. Thank you, Mr. Bartokomous.

Bless you and thank you.

I did it! So fuckin sweet!

Today, I can call myself a redditor.

Hi Neil. We were chums in high school. I went off to college and you to acting. We reconnected over kmfdm dot kom and you told me about Wonderfalls. I've since followed your work and bought DVDs of Wonderfalls and Eureka. My girlfriend loves you as the mouth breather and many friends enjoy your work. Meanwhile I've become unfamous as a teacher. Do you remember me perchance? NutsoCharles
