I don't get how that information was buried [oops] at the end of the news when "Schumacher is still alive, no change" was headlines.

Very sad. The passing of part of a comedy era.

This will be only for Philly people, but RIP Bill Conlin. Great baseball columnist... in the Hall of Fame... and then retired upon credible allegations of child abuse.

The Hall looks more and more idiotic every year that goes by. You've got the child molesters voting on who is moral enough to go in...They look to be snubbing Mike Mussina now (not snubbed on morals just because stupidity).

Ahoy Professor. You taught me so much. You taught me that batteries sitting on a shelf could lose their power, then you taught me that coconuts will suffice just as nice.

RIP Russell Johnson.

I was going to post about it, but my inability to open more than one Window at a time made it impossible for me to find out his real name. Back on the iPad now, despite the fact it's not as keyboard-friendly.

Roger Lloyd-Pack.
Emily Lloyd is his daughter.

Merkins might know him best from Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire as Barty Crouch (David Tennant's dad).
