He was called "The Master of Malaprop", which is where you purposely use the wrong word in a sentence, making it hilarious. For example, saying "You could have knocked me over with a fender." We assume the word "hilarious" meant something different back in the 60's.
Apparently, he dabbled in movie music, but he'll forever be remembered for creating that kick-ass glue.
