Dude looked like this the year I was born:

Very impressive he made it another 40 years.
I think he was like 45 when he retired - which had to be around 1983. I'm 45 and man, I'm thankful I don't look that old!!
It's pretty amazing how visual age has changed over the decades as smoking has decreased and sunscreen usage has increased.

Sesame Street legend Bob McGrath is rumored, I’m still looking for confirmation.

Let me be the first Brit to voice sadness about Bob McGrath! Sesame Street was never off the TV here when I was growing up, especially during school holidays. Even for kids way past the learning-to-read age, it was great fun, very witty and engaging.
I can remember him now as clear as day, he came across as a nice, friendly presenter without being too cheesy or condescending.
RIP Bob...

Aww damn. Was just introducing the Little Duder to sesame street today, as it happens (Christmas Eve on Sesame Street & Elmo saves Christmas). Bob was in both, of course. A legend, rip.

Wow, rip. No idea she had cancer. Also, surprised to see she was 71. Time flies.

Ugh she died in the same cancer hospital my cousin did back in 2009.
Look, you have to establish context for these things. And I maintain that unless you appreciate the Fall of Constantinople, the Great Fire of London, and Mickey Mantle's fatalist alcoholism, live Freddy makes no sense. If you want to half-ass it, fine, go call Simon Schama to do the appendix.

Like someone with a brain helplessly deteriorating for whatever other reason - be it Alzheimer's, a stroke, or a chronic mania, - I find myself now thinking of someone lost to the Right Wing melting compassion drain as having been gone since they first crossed that river.

I'm sorry. That was so horrific and this must bring back such awful feelings.
