Blogography: Johnny

Johnny

Dave! I don't think I could count the number of laughs afforded me by Johnny Carson, there's just too many of them. Staying up late to watch The Tonight Show was a rare luxury in my childhood, and it was the very first program I taped when I got my first VCR with "timer recording." I missed him when he retired in 1992, and I miss him again now that he's gone. Thanks for all the funny Johnny.

Here's Johnny

UPDATE: Mark Evanier (of "News From ME," one of my favorite sites) has a really nice tribute up.

I am so sad to hear of him passing! I was so little and remember watching him and only getting half of what he said, but my family thought he was a riot! Then I grew up and my love for him bloomed.
He will be missed by everyone.

P.S.
You get points for a really clever blog name!

Did he die? Oh no....I was secretly nursing hopes he'd do a come back. He is ageless to me.
Sigh.
