My mom would be very upset to hear this were she still of sound mind. But I think a fair amount of people still remember The Smothers Brothers.

saying goodbye to my amplifier. that old piece of transistors hit the bucket after now 28 yrs of (mostly) constant service and the one or more repair and modification on it.

though it was just some "low bob" mid 80's amp from grundig it keeped going. 

is it just me or are other people also think of their oldest or most used items (like radios/tv/etc) like an old friend of sort?

Whoa........  Thanks for posting this.    Wow, I collected a lot of his work back in the day.   Guess only OG (Original Gamers) will know his name.   Makes me almost want to break the Blood Angels and start painting again.

Still think about this man when remembering scenes from "Rocky" and other films, shows(?) he had even a bit part in. Always thought he was a class act whether on the football field or acting. I'm assuming he was a decent, conscionable individual in his personal and professional life.
