Damn. Another one gone. But 88 ain't too bad.
Say what you will, but the man for sure stayed busy. RIP.

Aww hell no...
I sent him a postcard 6 months ago with his stamp on it.
He was on the news for being on a Canadian stamp and he asked people to send post cards to him so he could see where his stamps were coming from.
Damn, going to miss Oddball and Hawkeye.
Wait. We lose Sutherland and Mays, but Chomsky's alive after all? WTF?!
I'll never get the chance to inquire...
It won't make me go schizo will it?

I think it is absolute perfection that the man who has spent 40 years warning us about the unreliability of news media was erroneously reported dead by said media.

Good actor and funny guy. But yeah, 88 is a good run.

"Woof woof woof! That's my other dog impression."
IMDB shows him with exactly 200 movie acting credits!
Saw him in the original MASH movie sitting next to a young lady drinking good scotch that I just bought her for her birthday. She sneaked a full glass in to the theater without spilling a drop.
In reply to Mustang50 :
A keeper for sure!
I saw a double feature "Mash & Patton" at a drive-in theater. I actually lived through it. Though sometimes I do that little Hawkeye whistle since that long night. ❤️
