R.I.P. Frank White, The Southern Sportsman

Those of you who watch WRAL have seen Frank's Southern Sportsman fishing show for over 20 years. He passed away today at his home near Greenville. He was 84. Never been a fisherman, but I've enjoyed his show from time to time. Hope he always catches the one that got away now.

Isn't it funny how some people can get you to watch things that you don't partcipate in or aren't interested in? Bob Ross was like that for tons of people I bet...he was just fun to watch, just like Frank. RIP.

I thought he was the nicest guy on television (and he's the third public figure this week whose death surprised me because I'd thought that he was already dead).
