u forgot to mention that he was a legend and raised millions for charity
Apparently he used to say a lot “Charity is the rent we pay on Earth”
Now I’m not a big charity guy but I like that line.
Condolences to his family.
Agreed, the man was a legend. Whether or not you liked the television shows he presented, he was essentially a good man and the world is poorer for his parting.
I bet he is’nt dead at all but just pretending. He will jump up at his own wake and shout ‘boo’ to everyone.
He was so famous that I’ve never even heard his name before.
In other news a whole lot of other people died yesterday, too. Like more than a hundred.
gir have you ever considered never posting anywhere again
