Sigh. First June Cleaver, now Howard Cunningham. My childhood pop culture icons are slipping away. . .

I was just about to post this. Since these things always happen in threes I am wondering who will be next.

Gonna also be a sad, sad day when Andy Griffith goes. Judging by his latest commercial, well, let's just say he's not looking so good. That commercial actually made me kind of sad.

Just saw the Andy/Medicare ad again. I keep expecting him to drool at any moment.

His rent was too damn high! =p~

I really hate that he did that ad. All poltical beliefs aside, he just comes across as angry, weak and frail. I can't get past the messenger to hear the message. NOT the way I want to remember Andy.
