LOS ANGELES (AP) - Comedian Rodney Dangerfield underwent a seven-hour operation Wednesday to replace a heart valve, his spokesman told The Associated Press.

"I'm pleased to announce that Rodney Dangerfield made it through his surgery and is currently resting comfortably in intensive care over at UCLA," said the spokesman, Kevin Sasaki.

Dangerfield is expected to be hospitalized about a week and should be able to return to work in about two months, Sasaki said.

One of the more entertaining threads over at .rgp were good luck wishes for 83 year old Rodney. Seems like a real nice guy although I don't know him except for his work. Appears everyone has a favorite "I don't get no respect" joke from the guy. One I always remembered: R rated!

My wife likes to talk during sex! Last night she called me from the holiday Inn!

Another poster had:

I tell ya I don't get no respect! I bought a used car. My wife's dress was in the back seat!

anyone else? Good Luck Rodney!
