  2. King Jimbo Says:

    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.

  5. gir Says:

    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.
