Andy Rooney Dead at 92, One Month After Retiring

Probably best remembered for his appearances on 60 minutes.

Not, I fear, a gentleman whose name I had ever heard or whose opinions I had ever read. Nor, indeed, do I know what 60 Minutes portends other than an hour.

Spot I think you would have liked Andy Rooney he was a pistol and always had commentary that was spot on just a good ol boy that told it lke it was.
ALOHA!!

MOTTO TO LIVE BY:

"Life should NOT be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in an attractive and well preserved body, but rather to skid in sideways, chocolate in one hand, champagne in the other, body thoroughly used up, totally worn out and screaming.

WOO HOO!!, what a ride!!!"

I enjoyed his appearances on 60 minutes when we got It here. He was always worth staying up late for. Ballsy, direct, no nonsence... I didn't always like what he said but he shot straight from the hip and I like that.

Computers make it easier to do a lot of things, but most of the things they make it easier to do don't need to be done.
